Some basic documentation can be found here.

Html – A way to set New line/ Linebreak in a TWebLabel caption?

Usually one would set it like this at runtime:

Label1.Caption := 'First line' + #13#10 + 'SecondLine';

but for some reason, this does not seem to work even if you turn WordWrap on or off.

What is the solution to create a linebreak in TMS Web Core at runtime?

    Found a better solution: In Design Time view the dfm as text

        object lblSection: TWebLabel
      AlignWithMargins = True
      Left = 0
      Top = 75
      Width = 1454
      Height = 136
      Margins.Left = 0
      Margins.Top = 75
      Margins.Right = 0
      Margins.Bottom = 0
      Align = alTop
      Alignment = taCenter
      Caption = 'Line1'#13'Line2'
      Font.Charset = ANSI_CHARSET
      Font.Color = clWindowText
      Font.Height = -28
      Font.Name = 'Sans Serif Collection'
      Font.Style = []
      HeightPercent = 100.000000000000000000
      HTMLType = tDIV
      ParentFont = False
      WidthPercent = 100.000000000000000000
      ExplicitWidth = 567
    end
  end
end

    so you need to use #13 between Line1 and Line2. Seems like you cannot use #10 in TMS

    First note. You can use sLineBreak instead of #13#10. sLineBreak is a constant defined in the System unit:

    const
   sLineBreak = {$IFDEF POSIX} _AnsiStr(#10) {$ENDIF}
       {$IFDEF MSWINDOWS} _AnsiStr(#13#10) {$ENDIF};

    I tested linebreaks on TMS Web Core on my side. It seems like the TWebLabel doesn’t support a linebreak (#13#10) in it for some reason. It does work in other controls such as a TWebMemo.

    I did a test. Here’s me trying to add it to a TWebLabel and a TWebMemo and you can see it working on the Memo, but not on the Label:

    WebLabel1.Caption := 'First line' + sLineBreak + 'SecondLine';
WebMemo1.Text := 'First line' + sLineBreak + 'SecondLine';

    Button, Label, Memo

    There is however a way. You can use the following:

    WebLabel1.ElementHandle.innerHTML := 'First line' + '<br>' + 'SecondLine';

    The <br> is the linebreak and that works:

    Button, Label, Memo
