How can I achieve more than one line on a component property description?  
Here is what I tried in the BeanInfo, but the `\r\n` is just ignored, see screenshot below.

```auto
addProp("findBreakpoints",
  "Find Breakpoints",
  "Automatically fill the Breakpoints Dataset based on the components that intersect the Leg." + "\r\n"
      + "Will ignore components that have a height less than 10 pixels." + "\r\n"
      + "Will overwrite the current 'Breakpoints' Dataset",
  CAT_LAYOUT,
  EXPERT_MASK);

```

They're rendered in some kind of old/incomplete HTML version, trying using `<BR>` instead of line breaks.

I think the intention is that these descriptions are ~40 characters or less, though, so 🤷

Using `<BR>` works. Thank you very much.
