Description
Summary
Text Formatting Notation Help does not indicate a way to create a new paragraph in the new Jira UI
Environment
In Jira Cloud, using the new Jira interface
Steps to Reproduce
- In new Jira UI, edit an issue description
- Enter some text
- press Enter twice (once to start a new line, and once more to leave an empty line between blocks)
- enter some more text
- Save changes
Expected Results
Would expect a single empty line between bodies of text to create a new paragraph
Actual Results
There is a line break, but this does not look visible different then a wrap around line of text.
A paragraph should have more spacing between itself and the previous paragraph
Notes

Still indicates that a single empty line should be sufficient.
Workaround
It appears possible to do this if you leave 3 empty lines between blocks of text. I also found you could hold Shift while you press Enter twice in order to achieve this same view. However only pressing enter twice leaves 2 spaces without a proper paragraph display.
