I have a check box with a statement that takes up several lines. I make the height per line big enough to see all lines and I see them in VFE. When I run the form I only see the first line, or at least as much as fits on one line, while the chart translation shows the whole thing. Any ideas on how to display a multi line check box statement?

Have you tried to use the list box?

we either shrink the checkbox field down to just the checkbox and follow it with a text field with all of the checkbox field text
or
follow the checkbox field with a text field with the remainder of the text.

OK thanks! I guess I will have to go that route

I do what jjordet suggested.
I follow the checkbox with a text component that contains the same text (but erase any text translation).
Then I shorten up the checkbox so that only the checkbox portion shows, with the text field to its right displaying the text. The text field can be defined to display more than 1 line, so works well for a whole paragraph 🙂
