If I formulate an attribute value with new line character, it appears in Data inspector as I expected. But when I write it out to KML, and open in Google Earth, there is no new line. How can I write multiple lines of attributes in KML description balloon?

KML Description is rendered using HTML, so to add new lines breaks, you can use <br/> in place of the new line character.
