You could try starting with `<html>` and adding `<br>` where you want your line breaks.

Html line breaks work on most Vision components with text properties. What component are you displaying this on?

The thing to try when html doesn't work is `\n`

I just want to put a mouseover with the values of two tags, but with a line break.

Example:

Rack = 1  
Voltage = 1.4

I understand that the text properties are interpreted in the same way as the Mouseover Text properties

I tested it on the mouseover text of a button, and it works for me.
