ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Yeah, this is caused by the way SVG 1.1 multiline text works, and will probably not be resolved until we have proper SVG 2 multiline text.
Comment 2 acc4commissions 2020-01-16 18:08:15 UTC 
Are you sure? As far as I remember it worked in older versions of krita(that has the SVG text tool);
Comment 3 vanyossi 2020-01-17 06:00:16 UTC 
Yes we are sure, Svg text editor works with Qt SVG spec which currently is at SVG 1.1, this spec does not have defined line breaks inside a text block. In previous versions you could get around that limitation using the Unicode new line (U+2424) character, but under certain circunstances that glyph caused the SVG render to get confused and loop forever, so we patched that possibility.
