  <title>TextView widget</title>

     <note style="sidebar">
If we press "enter", we have a new line.

     
If we press "enter" more times then there are lines in the default sized window, then a vertical scrollbar appears.

     
If we write a long sentence, the text will wrap breaking lines between words.

     
If we have a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong word, a horizontal scrollbar will appear.
