Carriage return in a Field

Is it possible to add the carriage return to fields?

A text field is text.  More accurately, text in a text node.  Each text element is aligned with the others but displaced horizontally.  Use the ANALYZE ELEMENT command to see details.

MicroStation text is not like a word processor, and doesn't understand carriage returns or new lines.  The nearest you get, when you type a carriage return, is the automatic creation of a text node that has text elements placed vertically to show visually a multi-line paragraph.

the name/description is to long to fit into the space available

I suggest that you post an Idea asking for better text composition.
