Wrap command button label?

I'd like to make a command button with the label "Print Customer Directions", but I want to fit it into a space that's smaller than that label (as a single line) will comfortably fit.

Can the text of a command button label be wrapped somehow?

Yes, You can break the label of an element onto several lines.

Select your button
Go to the Other tab of the Property Editor
Click in the label field
Hit F5
Hit F6
Make your label Multi-line by hitting enter where you want it to go to the next line
Click Editor->Save and Close
Click the Arrow to set the label

The Label in the property editor will have a ^J in it, do not worry about it. When you set it to the element you will see the label on two lines.

Ray, that's marvelous.  Thanks.  Is this trick in the book?  I searched to no avail.

Where else does the editor work as a useful tool, that I might not ordinarily think of?
