kdialog --progress new line

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to break lines in kdialog --progress dialog.

Example:
kdialog --progressbar "Line1 Line2 Line3" 10

creates dialog with Line1,2,3 in one line but

kdialog --progressbar "Line1\n Line2\n Line3" 10

does the same.

Anyway way to issue new line in this dialog?

Thanks in advance for reply.
Regards

RE: kdialog --progress new line

Just type newlines (i.e. press Enter) inside a non-terminated quote section:

Source code

 
1
2
3

$ kdialog --progressbar "Line 1
Line 2
Line 3" 10
