Dear Paul and David,

I'm currently writing a script that depends heavily on the user clicking continuation buttons in the pause window to speed up a set of tasks. However, I've found that I'm limited by the fact that the width of buttons is decided by the total possible width divided by the number of continue buttons, and it isn't possible to split these buttons between different lines. This minimal example script produces truncated buttons:

beginPause: "Buttons"
	comment: "Please click a button"
endPause: "Here", "Is a nice set", "Of buttons", "Which the user",  "can click", 1

buttons

Would it be possible to implement a degree of customization of button placement, so that it could be possible to create a pause window with buttons on different lines?

I'm envisioning something like this following example, although apologies I don't know C++ so can't suggest how this might actually work and don't know how easy it would be to implement.

beginPause: "Buttons"
	comment: "Please click a button"
	continueButton: "Here", "Is a first row", "of continuation buttons", 
	continueButton: "Here", "is a second row", "Of buttons", "Which end the pause", 
endPause

Thanks in advance!
