I'm having a strange problem with UMS

I'm using ccoa's Universal Message System to show more than 3 lines of text in my window. The problem I'm encountering is that the INPUT field in the events editor won't let me /type/ more than 3 lines of text into it... So whether the UMS lets me /show/ 4 lines of text in one window or not, I can't actually input 4 lines of text, making that script, in essence, not work.

Anyone have any idea how to work around this? In the UMS demo, they show a window with like 7 lines of text, proving to me that it can be done...

Thanks!

Either use batch text entry (right click in the event editor, select Batch Text Entry) or use the /inc message code in a second text entry.

Look at the event in the demo or the instructions.
