Line spacing on forum posts
Any ideas on how to keep posts from double spacing when creating a forum/blog post? Every time I hit "Enter" it double spaces. Here's an example...

Hold the Shift key down when you press Enter.

Wow that works, thanks Debra.

Using the Bullet list format will also give single spacing; the bullets seem to disappear upon posting:
But the Shift+Enter is definitely easier.
Is there a way to keep the bullets on posting? Or indent a line?
As you can see from alcophile's post, the bullets reappear in the published version. Why they don't show up in preview, I don't know.
As for indenting a line, the only way I've found so far is to use the space bar. If anyone else knows the trick, without bullets or numbers, I'm interested too. Especially a proper indent that moves the whole paragraph and not just the first line. I don't like the quote feature for this because it forces italics.
Thanks for noticing this. I only looked at the preview and hadn't paid attention to the actual post.
There is an ASCII character for TAB (Alt+009) that inserts a TAB in MS Word, but it does not seem to work in this text editor.
Indeed, thanks for pointing this out. I thought alcophile had used some trick since the bulleted text has a different font colour. But now I see the numbered list is also in that colour. Must be a quirk of the system.
I suppose no one expects forum posters to be this interested in typography.
Count von Count says that the numbered lists are good too:
Ah, ah, ah.
