Bot - How to return a newline from Bot to both skype preview and skype web app
I have a Bot app that returns a newline just fine to the Skype preview windows 10 app, using \n\n. However, when I display the message in the web app https://web.skype.com/en/?ecsoverride=developer, it does nor respect the newline breaks and represents it as an ongoing string.
I do not see in the help here: https://docs.botframework.com/en-us/csharp/builder/sdkreference/activities.html
...how to represent a newline regardless of what the client will be - is there some newline that can be used for any client that will receive the message from my bot? If I add something like
it shows as that text in my skype windows 10 app instead of a newline - I'm looking for some newline that works on any client.
Any ideas?

Update for 3.5 version
putting to string \n\n creates a new paragraph. Like the following:
"Paragraph1_text/n/nParagraph2_text" results in
Paragraph1_text
Paragraph2_text
Older versions
I found out that putting two spaces + NewLine symbol solves the problem(C# code):
return $"some text: {Environment.NewLine}text from new paragraph"
Or
return $"some text: \ntext from new paragraph"
The result is
some text:
text from new paragraph
This works for both: Microsoft Bot Framework emulator and Skype chat
