Creating a newline in rich text box

Question

I need help on creating a new line for my RichTextBox which I cant make work when using CheckBox.

It keeps overlapping instead of creating a newline of words.

Tried using the method of rtbdisplay.text = (display+envrionment.newline); example from my code:

if (rbtnSmall.Checked == true)
{
    rtbDisplay.Text = "displaytext".PadRight(20) + "size".PadRight(23) +
                      qty.ToString().PadRight(20) + StrongDummy;
}

Solution

Use the RichTextBox.Text property or the RichtTextBox.AppendText method to append a string with a newline.

myRichTextBox.Text += Environment.NewLine + "My new line.";

// Or

myRichTextBox.AppendText( Environment.NewLine + "My new line." );

Worth noting: Even if you append Environment.NewLine, in RTF, only the \n is retained. If you look at the Text property, you will see that the \r is gone.

Recently encountered this causing issues because the length of my input string and the Environment.NewLine added together were greater than the total text length after using AppendText.
