Wish: Multiline prompt box message

[Patrick C]

prompt Method (Window Object)
Displays a dialog box to enter a string.
strAnswer = prompt(strMessage, strDefault, flags);

The prompt box currently cannot display multiline messages.
Example:

let strMessage = ’● Line 1/3
● Line 2/3
● Line 3/3’;
prompt(strMessage, "");

Results in

I would massively appreciate an updated prompt box that could display multiline messages.

Hello, did you try eePromptMultiline flag?

Yes, the result is the same as eePromptMultiline only applies to the string input box.

prompt(“● Line 1/3\n● Line 2/3\n● Line 3/3”, “”, eePromptMultiline);

As before, the message’s
● Line 2/3
● Line 3/3
are not visible.
