Change default behaviour of enter to a new paragraph (new line, but with no margins). A user can press enter twice to create space between elements.

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      When you type enter in the rich text editor, a paragraph is created – this should be a line break, two of which in succession should produce a paragraph.

      In a table, the paragraph is converted to a break, which is inconsistent.

      Multiple empty paragraphs should become escaped newlines (
      ), but don't.

      Most people don't know they can press SHIFT+ENTER to achieve this effect in the RTE. It's not discoverable.

            Comment [ Bump. A 6 year old problem that keeps reoccurring should be resolved further then a "won't fix". current solutions are manually update a text block with shift+return or add adding a "line-height" in source editor or paste into notepad++ and copy and paste back into confluence. I wonder how many users have gone done this rabbit hole and given up to resorting to these methods. Don't f the customer? How much time could Atlassian save their users by adding a line height feature.  ]

            Description Original: When you type enter in the rich text editor, a paragraph is created -- this should be a line break, two of which in succession should produce a paragraph.

            In a table, the paragraph is converted to a break, which is inconsistent.

            Multiple empty paragraphs should become escaped newlines (\\), but don't.
