One command on multiple line (example MsgBox)

[Quillok]

Hi,

i just wanted to ask if it's possible to use one command over multiple lines? I hope you understand what I mean because english is not my mother tongue.

Here's an example what I mean with the Msgbox:

MsgBox("Test","Test")

This works

MsgBox("Test",
"Test")

This causes an Error.

But I think it would be helpful because I'm using a MsgBox with a lot of variables and the command is to long to fit on the screen, so i have to scroll a lot. And if it would work over multiple lines I could comment every variable so I know what it does when I want to work a few weeks later on my program.

Heres what I mean, what would be perfect, maybe not only for me, even for some other users here

Normal use because there is no other way:

MsgBox("Here I write some Text" & VariableText1 & VariableText2 & "some normal Text again" & VariableText3 & VariableText4,"Only some Text)

How I would prefer it to use:

MsgBox("Here I write some Text"  'Some text...
& VariableText1 'VariableText1 contains this and that
& VariableText2 'VariableText2 contains some other this and thats
& "some normal Text again" 'Normal Text 
& VariableText3 'VariableText3 shows something beautiful
& VariableText4, 'VariableText4 shows something more beautiful 
"Only some Text") 'The rest thats needed :)

I hope it's clear what I meant and maybe some of you think so too. Or is this not possible for the compiler?

You could have found it in the Beginner's Guide chapter 21.5 Split a long line into two or more lines.

Best regards.
