Draw file demonstrating the bug

Problem description: 

Single line fontwork works fine. However creating of a multiple line fontwork results in a single line fontwork 

Steps done:
Open a fontwork
Double click into the text to start editing
Create line break by shift+enter
Text in the editing window appears in double or even multiline
but closing the editing window results in a single line fontwork

When opening below fontwork's editing window the text is still there in 2 lines.

PowerPoint has this feature and it would be great if in Impress this bug can be fixed (or the feature added if it is not a bug).



Steps to reproduce in Draw and Impress
1 -Open a fontwork
2 -Double click into the text to start editing
3 - Create line break in the editing window by shift+enter


Current behavior:
Text in the editing window appears in double or even multi-line
but closing the editing window results in a single line fontwork

Expected behavior:
If the text in the editing window is a multi-line text, the fontwork should display with the same line breaks

Note: Other LibO components not tested

              
Operating System: Windows XP

Why are you using SHIFT+ENTER to create a line break and not only ENTER?
If I insert a line break with SHIFT+ENTER, then I can reproduce this behavior with LO 4.0.1.2 (Win7 Home, 64bit).
But, if I insert a line break only with ENTER, then I get the Fontwork on two lines.
Therefore, I am not sure if this is a bug, because it seems to work with ENTER.

@Bug Reporter: Do you really think this is a bug?

Can maybe anybody else confirm this?

The reason for using shift+enter is most likely that it is typically needed to create new lines under the same condition and, additionally, in the editing mode shift+enter creates 2 or more lines. Therefore it never strucked my mind to use only enter.

I tested it and it works fine. Sorry for posting a bug report and thanks for hint. Please close the bug report.

Maybe you could trigger and additional information in the help that multiline fontwork can be created by simply using enter. If so there would and added value result from your and my work.
