Double spacing posts?

[mierk]

Just curious why double spacing is automatic for everytime you hit return when you're posting? Guess it's not a big deal, but it is a bit of a hassle.

[Krystian]

good question, and i haven't a clue as to what the answer would be. hopefully Em can fill us in so we're not in the dark for too much longer!

[administrator]

Must have something to do with the way the software is written. It's not exactly bugfree. smileys/smiley6.gif

[mierk]

Well nuts, I was thinking that it was just an arbitrary setting Emmitt had picked. Guess I'll just have to learn to deal!

[Krystian]

ahhh, this may be one of the things..

how d'you do it Tania?

[Wheels]

Is it not normal
to be able to post
with single line spacing?

[marina]

ill have another go....


nope.....


maybe its my PC?

[tis_me_Tania]

single spaced is too much work for me (me lazy..).. but if you really want to, you can just open up Microsoft Word or Notepad or anything that you can write in, write a couple lines and copy and paste to here. then you'll be ableto keep that format of writing single spaced.


like i said, too much work. lol >_<

I think I sussed it out, cos when I'm at work the double spacing doesn't happen (on a Mac using Safari) and yet when I'm at home it does (XP and Explorer), I've just tried on Mozilla Firebird and the spacing is normal....

If in doubt always blame microsoft hehe!!!!!!

[Smithy]

And now (drum roll) how to fix it smileys/smiley1.gif go to your profile and click no where it says: Enable the Windows IE 5 + WYSIWYG post editor

and Ta Da!!! Only one carriage return when you hit the enter key

Enable the Windows IE 5 + WYSIWYG post editor

you can just hold down <Shift> when you hit <Enter> rather than have to change any settings...
That's what I do smileys/smiley1.gif Edited by: kristine

[Lemonhead]

oh wow!!! i've been wondering this for months but no-one else seemed to have issues with it so i was afraid to ask! i thought i'd get laughed at!smileys/smiley36.gifsmileys/smiley36.gif


yipee no more big gapssmileys/smiley4.gif

[Lemonhead]

yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
this is sweet
except it feels a little tight for space this way.. ooh wait...


aaaah! *stretches* that's better... tea anyone?!smileys/smiley4.gif

[SisterMidnight]

smileys/smiley36.gifhaha! Good dig, JJ! http://www.eskimofriends.com/forum/smileys/smiley4.gif
oooh this is cool... and yes I've been wondering forever how to do this!
I like the shift option better cos if I turn off that post editor thingy it makes me give script prompts for fonts and such...



but yeah spacing is better for some breathing room and stretchiness smileys/smiley2.gif
