[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #62490] edit style uicontrol() doesn't support multiple lines of text

[Glite]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #62490 (project octave):

That can solve this problem. 
Btw we should improve the document about how to enable multiple lines of text.
Otherwise users may just regard that as a workaround.

you need to set the difference between "max" and "min" properties larger than
1 to allow multi-line edit. E.g, the following produces a multiline uicontrol
for me:

200 200])
