    Hi enriqueflex,

    Unfortunately, you can achieve it through using a business rule, maybe you can vote the following idea:

    Microsoft Idea (dynamics.com) 

    Or you can use workflow to set value in  a multiple line text field, which can change new line:

    Hello enriqueflex,

    You can use the "Rich Text Control" to populate the default text in Rich text Format. Please refer below article which will help you.

    Also if you want to populate the Text depending on some trigger point then you need to use Java script to populate the text.

    Thank you,

    I'm finding more and more that this "low/no code solution" is only so until you need to do something useful.
