TextArea in config_flow

Development

Is there a way to add a normal textarea in the config flow ?
Via Google, I only found an old feature request from 2020.

I tried it with ObjectSelector

            vol.Required("advanced_options"): data_entry_flow.section(
                vol.Schema(
                    {
                        vol.Optional(CONF_STATS_TEMPLATE,      description={"suggested_value": current_data.get(CONF_STATS_TEMPLATE, "")}): ObjectSelector(ObjectSelectorConfig()),
                    }
                ),
                # Whether or not the section is initially collapsed (default = False)
                {"collapsed": True},
            ),

this shows me a kind of textarea but only for formatted code

I want to save text / code without any formatting / converting.

Content like this:

.amvg-headline { 
  color: red; 
} 

span.BAHN { 
  background-color: #FFFFFF; 
  color: #E30613; 
  border: 1px solid #E30613; 
}

I know, I can write the css code in one line, but this is no user friendly option.

Use a text selector with multiline set to true.

thx for your answer, but if I use multiline

vol.Optional(CONF_STATS_TEMPLATE,      description={"suggested_value": current_data.get(CONF_STATS_TEMPLATE, "")}): TextSelector({"type": "text", "multiline": True}),

multiline only displays a single line over multiple rows. Means I am not able to use the ENTER key to add a new line

multiline boolean (Optional, default: false)
Set to true to display the input as a multi-line text box on the user interface.

Of course, its better than without the multiline option but its not what I am looking for.
