For the .NET ToolStripButton, can I have a multiple line "Text" property?

I have a toolbar of images, and I want text labels underneath the images. Where the text labels are multiple words, I'd like to stack the words vertically. How can I do it?

From stackoverflow
  • Although not supported by the VS UI, you can have a multiline label. Simply use CrLf to separate lines.

  • To elaborate on Paulo's answer:

    You can't do the multiline at design time. But at runtime you can set the .Text property of each ToolStripButton like this:

    ToolStripButton1.Text = "This is " & ControlChars.CrLF & "a button."
    

    That will give you the multi-line display for your text.
