This hasn't been a common request. What is your use case for allowing a user to type up to, say, three lines but no more? Most UIs I've seen limit the number of characters you can type, not the number of lines.
I think you have two choices: use the 'textInput' event to limit the amount of text that goes in, or use the 'change' event to remove excess text that has already gone in. Which are you trying, and what problems are you running into?

Has anyone ever done this? Seen any tutorials on this? It seems that a good amount of people would want something like this. I keep running into issues with it, and it is very frustrating!
