Backslash (\) doesn't work for some reasons.
I tried using \ to split line within enclosing text, but Renpy treated it as a character and display the whole "\n" during gameplay, not backlash.
I wonder if it's just me. I have the latest java installed, and my renpy version is 6.11.2b.

Can you post your code you're using?

Is that arrow (>) supposed to be there? Take that out.

Yes it is.
I was thinking something just like in Persona, how the thoughts/narrator will be indicated by the arrow.
For example:
Hector, are you alright?
>The concern in her eyes could not be ignored.
The problem is even without the arrow, Renpy could not recognise the backslash (\)![Confused :?](./images/smilies/icon_confused.gif)

Quite strange, maybe it's just this computer. It works fine on the other computers.
Never mind. Thanks anyway.

Re: Backslash (\) doesn't work for some reasons.
Maybe because of the arrow. How about putting a space between the arrow and the slash? I'm not a coder, but maybe that'll do the trick.
