The object inspector's strings editor has its [OK] button set as the default so pressing [Enter] closes the dialog, which is logical.

IMO it's not logical to close an dialog for entering *multiple* lines with Enter. At least D5 adds a new line on Enter.


I usually forget this when trying to enter several lines of text, and so close the dialog when trying to enter a new line in the strings memo.

Could the dialog's StatusLabel's caption have a bit of help appended to it something on the lines of
'  (Use [Ctrl][Enter] to add a new line)'   ?

AFAIK Ctrl-Enter is a TMemo specific shortcut, which allows to insert linebreaks into otherwise multiline (word wrapped) text. This is different from a StringList, which does not wrap long lines.
