Always Multiline

Ensures consistent multi-line text input by permanently enabling the multiline feature.

Below is the revised documentation with improved spacing between headings and tables:

Overview

The SiticoneTextArea control is designed specifically for multi-line text input. Unlike a standard TextBox, its Multiline property is permanently enabled, ensuring that it always supports multiple lines without additional configuration. This makes it an ideal choice for applications that require consistent behavior for extensive text input, such as chat applications, log viewers, and feedback forms.

Feature	Description
Pre-configured for multi-line input	Always supports multiple lines; the Multiline property is forced, eliminating manual configuration.
Long text input support	Automatically displays scrollbars when text exceeds the visible area, ensuring proper text display.
Consistent text formatting	Manages multi-line text naturally, providing predictable behavior across different use cases.

Key Points

Aspect	Details
Automatic Multiline Support	The control natively supports multiple lines without the need for manual property adjustment.
Built-in Scrollbars	When long text is entered, scrollbars appear automatically, enhancing the user experience in text-heavy scenarios.
Use Case Versatility	Ideal for chat apps, logs, feedback forms, and any interface requiring extensive text input.

Usage Example

Below is an improved code sample demonstrating how to initialize and use the SiticoneTextArea control:

// Create a new instance of SiticoneTextArea
SiticoneTextArea textArea = new SiticoneTextArea();

// Set the text with multiple lines; the '\n' indicates a new line
textArea.Text = "This is a multiline text area.\nIt will always support multiple lines.";

// Add the control to the current form's controls collection
this.Controls.Add(textArea);

This sample highlights that the control automatically supports multi-line text and handles long text input with scrolling functionality.
