“shift” + “return” for soft returns (line break with no paragraph spacing)
“return” for hard returns (with para spacing)
the fact that “return” often closes a modal dialogue or enters a cell in a spreadsheet means there’s a veritable catalogue of shortcuts used for hard returns in different apps.
I’m cool with “cmd” + “return” for hard returns and adding a half a line of paragraph spacing would be nice.
We’ve converted this to a bug report. Our documentation isn’t clear on the Markdown format for linebreaks and paragraphs.
Text inside a comment uses Markdown formatting. To start a new line, finish the line with two or more trailing spaces, then press ⌥↵ to continue on a new line. To start a new paragraph, add a blank line after the previous line of text (⌥↵⌥↵).
