I'm using Excel-DNA Intellisense for VBA functions, which involves providing a worksheet named _Intellisense_. All works great, though I find that new line characters (ascii 10) in the "argument help" have no effect in the intellisense popup. I've tried using ascii 13 and the html tag <br> to no avail.
Is this something that could be fixed?
To illustrate, here's help for a function that parses a .csv file to an array. In the image below, I show the intellisense that I'm able to achieve (on the left) versus what I would like to achieve (with line feeds, mocked up on the right).

@PGS62 I see what is happening. When you edit a cell to add a new line (with Alt+Enter) then Excel puts only a newline (ASCII char 10) into the line. But the Excel-DNA IntelliSense is splitting the lines using the standard Windows newline sequence, with both a carriage return and a newline (ASCII 13 & 10).
You can get string with these delimiters into the cell with a formula like
="My first line" & CHAR(13) & CHAR(10) & "and then the next line" & CHAR(13) & CHAR(10) & "and the rest"
It displays the same in the cell as the newline only, but now the Excel-DNA processing will pick up and display the extra lines.
It's probably worth updating the IntelliSense to also accept the newline characters alone.
