Description

On widgets sample "Static" page, the markup text seems to be rendered incorrectly. Also the horizontal scrollbar is too long.

I think scrollbar is just due the general problem with pages sizing in this sample (I don't remember it was discussed exactly, but we did do it already... but it's not in #24154 where it started and I just can't find it at the moment), but the markup text display is definitely broken, thanks for noticing this.

Somewhat surprisingly, this is MSW-specific, even though this code is generic. It looks like new lines handling is different (and broken) in wxMSW, however. I'll try to look at this, but 3.3.2 milestone on this one is an aspiration, not a commitment...

There are "TODO-MULTILINE-MARKUP" comments in src/generic/markuptext.cpp which basically explain why this doesn't work in wxMSW. Fixing this should be relatively simple, but not completely trivial, so I'd like to ask, how critical is this for KiCad? If it isn't, I'd rather postpone it until after 3.3.2.

This being said, I still have no idea how does this work in wxGTK...

That's not used in KiCad.
