How do I move down the buttons in UIAlertView?

Question

I have three buttons and a textview in uialertview, and tried to move down the buttons with add "\n" in uialertview's message property. But it's not work. The string will become "..." when it reach the limit of a line. the textview always cover my buttons. Do you have any suggestions? Sorry that I don't have the right to post image.

                                                     delegate:self 
                                            cancelButtonTitle:@"Cancel" 
                                            otherButtonTitles:@"OK",@"Search", nil];

UIAlert view has maximum height (I've tried this same thing with no success); you won't be able to make it bigger. I suggest that you use a custom pop-over instead. A popover can act like an alert but will give you more flexibility.
