simple multiple lines text device

i try to understand how to get multiple lines into a dummy text device
for example :
line 1
line 2
line 3
i have found this: TEXT = Text you want to display, can be multiple lines when adding \r\n to the string.
but i dont know how to implement it.
i think it goes at the end of this: commandArray['UpdateDevice'] ='1234|0|(somehow here??)

Something like this should work:
Code: Select all
commandArray['UpdateDevice'] ='1234|0|line1\nline2'

Thats caused by the mobile app not domoticz. The text sensor itself accepts html just fine.
I have many sensors populated this way also with <a href= making links in text sensors and then you can click the link as it should.
Open domoticz on your device and check (it has a mobile page)
