We are on Appian 7.7 , while adding instructions to SAIL components like a!dropdownfield(), how can we have multiple lines separated by new line?
e.g. : a!dropdownField(....instructions: "a. Use option one to do abc b. Use option two to do xyz"

On UI the instructions a. and b. should appear in multiple lines one below the other.

I tried using the CHAR function to add new line, but did not seem to be working.

I have tried this in the past and it did not work for me either. It seems that char(10) or char(13) do not work in the instructions property. However, when these functions are combined with Rich text display functions, they work as expected. Eventually, I displayed entire instruction text in a single line and that was acceptable to some extent.
