You can try what I did: type 2-3 lines of text in VStudio, without blank lines in between, just 2-3 paragraphs. Import the text in Director using SQL commands and put it in a text member. Export the same field from VStudio in a text file (from Save... in Content Editor) and import it as text in Director. You'll notice that in the first case (import from Valentina DB) blank lines are inserted between paragraphs, while on the second case (import of txt file directly into a Director text member) the text appears correctly.<br>
I always use PC and Director 11, I wrote the text in VStudio for PC. I usually use Greek text, but the last example I did was the 3 paragraphs with the English text I sent you and nothing different happened.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

</div>* And this list contains already above TEXT with blank lines, yes?<br>
<br>
* Do you work always on single platform? Mac or Win?<br>
Can be this issue of different platform line ends?<br>
<br>
<br>
* Does Vstudio show later above text fine? Without blank lines?<br>
