Is there any way to have a text returned dialog box display a block
rather than the one line to input text?
If I have several lines of copy with returns on my clipboard and paste
it into this dialog box, not all the type is visable.


set List_Colors1 to text returned of ¬ (display dialog "Paste your copied Color List" default answer ¬ "Pantone Color" buttons {"Cancel", "Submit Color List"} default button 2)

The edit field will be tall enough to accommodate the original default answer, so the solution is to make that more than one line:


display dialog "Paste your copied Color List" default answer ¬
("Pantone Color" & return & return) buttons {"Cancel", "Submit Color List"} default button 2
