Markdown formatting: return or line break

When “Resolve Markdown formatting” is activated in the Project Info, is there something I can input that will force a line break?
If it matters, it’s the “Work number” field I’m trying to do this in. (I’m using that field for Tune name and meter.)
Thank you!

I found a way to get what I want: in a word processor, I inputted two hard returns, and when the data was pasted into Dorico’s project info, its markdown interpreted it as one return or line break. (One return did not work.)

There seems to be a distinction between single line and multi line project information fields.
Multi line obey line breaks
Single line does not, and any of the ‘usual suspects’, (\r, \n, \ ) do nothing. The last can be used with markdown, but it seems there are no standard on how to support markdown on a single line.

You can do the same thing using a multiline field in Project Info, like Other Information. Enter something there the way you want it to look, and then copy and paste into the desired single-line field. It will look like one line there, but it will render correctly when the token is resolved.
