2nd Line of Flash Text

It would be super if there was an option to include a 2nd input of text in Resolume. Either a new tab or just making room on the current text box for a 2nd smaller one (in the flash files prefs).
something like rtext2 for the variable name in the flash file, so if it exists it gets written too just like the current system.
Basically I've got a concert with artists names and some have bigger names and take up 2 lines. 'The' on the first rtext then 'downlow' on rtext2.

I'm a newbie with Resolume and having a ton of fun.
I've created a flash file with a very long/wide dynamic text box with about 100 characters and animating it like an LED board.
Is there a way to tell resolume to treat the text entry box as one continuous line and not "flip" on each new line. An "EOL" character would be awesome!

lotech: In your flash movie you can use Action script to create several "virtual text variables"
if you need any help doing this contact me by messenger

actually i would be interested too in knowing how do you do with action script ? A nice quick tuto would be so nice, especially for LineUps screening.

i don't have time to do a tutorial (configuring the new datacenter at this time) but i give you some guides.
- In the Textbox on Resolume you put something like this:
line 1 blabla;line 2 té té; line3 lol;
- Then with Action script before you use the variable you split the text variable that came from resolume by the ";" char and you will get an array of strings like this:
array[0]="line 1 blabla";
array[1]="line 2 té té";
array[1]="line 3 lol";
- then you can do what you want whith the diferent strings
This is one there are many whays to do this but this may be the simple

does anyone know of a place to download (or is anyone willing to share) flash text files? I've got a NYE party coming up next weekend and would like to be able to enter some cool text, but don't have time to start making flash files... i was wondering if anyone knew of a place to download them (i have links to plenty of source footage, avi's, etc, but i can't find flash) - or is anyone willing to share the flash files they have made for text entry?
Thanks!
