when setting a summary for a property / field / method etc.. is it possible to manually break the lines without using the para (paragraph break) 

/// <summary>
/// line one
/// line two
/// </summary>
public int member{get;set;}

On hover, this shows

int member
line one line two

Adding <para> ??? </para> tags like

/// <summary>
/// <para>line one</para>
/// <para>line two<para>
/// </summary>
public int member{get;set}

shows

int member
line one

line two

What I am looking for is

int member
line one
line two

Notice that there is not a blank line between line one and line two

  • If you don't want to add the [empty character], you can always use a self closing to break the text. /// /// This is the first line. /// /// New line. /// – idream1nC0de Aug 22 '15 at 03:32
  • Every instance of using the (which is a paragraph break) creates an blank line between the two text lines. All I am looking for is the new line code, not the new paragraph code. – Keith O Reilly Aug 22 '15 at 14:23
  • **nvoigt,** I can fully understand how you think that this question has been asked and answered, but in my opinion, the answers (which I have reviewed before asking) create a blank line between the two blocks of text, something I do not want. – Keith O Reilly Aug 22 '15 at 14:25
  • Obviously you did not try the self closing tag or you would know that's not true. I just tested that before posting the comment for you. – idream1nC0de Aug 22 '15 at 14:25
  • **Jacob** here is the actual code that I tried your suggestion...`/// /// 16-bit signed integer type /// /// -32,768 ~ +32,767 /// public class SMALLINT` and the same problem occurs.... on rollover it still creates a blank line between the 16-bit signed integer type line abd the -32,768 ~ +32,767 line. – Keith O Reilly Aug 22 '15 at 14:27
  • I agree that the non-self closing tags do produce a double line break, however, the self closing tag in my environment is producing a single line break, or new line. – idream1nC0de Aug 22 '15 at 14:33
  • Then, I presume , there is an environment setting that affects this. If I could work it out, I would send you a screen shot of the actual rollover event – Keith O Reilly Aug 22 '15 at 14:42
