Symptoms

Text field shows values in a single line instead of multiple lines. Those values were output by PX using Object.setLargeTextValue(Largetext, DaysoftheWeek);

Steps to reproduce
1) Add Largetext Field to an Object
2) Write PX Code to do the following

String DaysoftheWeek;
DaysoftheWeek = 'Sunday ' + "\n';
DaysoftheWeek = DaysoftheWeek + 'Monday ' + "\n';
DaysoftheWeek = DaysoftheWeek + 'Tuesday' + "\n';
DaysoftheWeek = DaysoftheWeek + 'Wednesday' + "\n';
DaysoftheWeek = DaysoftheWeek + 'Thursday' + "\n';
DaysoftheWeek = DaysoftheWeek + 'Friday' + "\n';
DaysoftheWeek = DaysoftheWeek + 'Saturday' + "\n';

Object.setLargeTextValue(Largetext, DaysoftheWeek);

Expect result is
Sunday
Monday
Tuesday
etc...

Actual Result is
Sunday Monday Tuesday etc...
