RDS Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 There is no need to extra lines between paragraphs. This Forum does it automatically. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LTSR_NSE Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 …& amazingly the post compose/edit screen shows it too! (WYSIWYG 😃) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What About The Bee Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 At first, I tried my usual method of composing the text elsewhere, with <cr> but no extra <cr>. In the older forum, this would result in a <cr><cr>, because every <cr> gets the substitution <cr><cr>. That doesn't work anymore. Example Two lines Just <cr> Now I use <cr><cr>. Example Two lines Double <cr> It is a WYSIWYG. Which I decidedly prefer. Makes interpretation of the text in the other editor much easier. Yet if I type <cr> directly into this edit box, not pasting it in, I get <cr><cr>. Which is anomalous. Pasted carriage returns <cr> are treated differently than typed <cr>.

Fishmanoz Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I’m finding I have to insert 2 returns then delete the first to get the correct spacing via an iPad. If a start with only one, I get this. If I start with and leave two, I get this. If I start with two, then delete the first, I get this. Very annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilbo2 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I thought this was going to be "fixed" in the new forum, more edits to do when I forget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moccasin Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 (edited) I’ve worked this out just now and mentioned in another post. In iOS at least, the usual double space to create a full stop leaves a space after. If you then immediately press return here, you get a new line without paragraph spacing. If however you delete the space after the full stop, a new paragraph is formed with a space before the last line. Unclear whether this is a bug. Is it the same with Android, or in Windows?

RB51 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 We'll ask about the potential for a bug. It might be device issue R- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moccasin Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Thanks. Now I know how to work around it, it’s less annoying and will soon become second nature I’m sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntpntpntp Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Well, it's no big deal if paragraphs end up with two blank lines. I try to remember but I must admit I'm in the habit of hitting the Return key twice, it's from decades of using systems which needed it in order to ensure a blank line.
