Is it possible to have text to place itself on a new line when it reaches the end of the available window space within a plugin. I scrape information for a website, but, it all comes in on one long line, as shown in the screenshot.

 

Heres the skin info i have made

 

    skin = """
        <screen position="center,center" size="900,480" title="National Lottery - Main draw raffle results." >
  	    <ePixmap pixmap="extensions/lotto.png" position="800,10" size="65,65" zPosition="1" transparent="0" alphatest="on" />
        <widget name="maindrawraffle" render="Label" position="10,10" size="780,460" scrollbarMode="showOnDemand" />
        </screen>"""

i tried adding the render="Label" to see if that would work. scrolling left/right doesnt work, that jumps to the next / previous page

 

thank you in advance

just to add to the above information. I know that /n is for a new line, but, im using (.+?) to scrape information from a single field, which contains normally 50 'entires' from the one single scrape, but has also contained 100, 150, 500 and even 1000 , all seperated only by a comma between each entry. this is making everything in the OSD be shown on one single line, which isnt big enough, so need something to recognise when the text reaches the end of the available window space, and make it start on the next line

EDIT: the info i gave wasnt what you required after re reading your question.

Try to use ScrollLabel in python code.
