           Summary: please swap ENTER with CTRL-ENTER in richtext format
           Product: knotes
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: anyaddress gmx net


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

In richtext mode, when pressing ENTER, a paragraph (<p>) is made out of the current line instead of just starting a newline (<br>). That means: pressing ENTER makes a big gap between the current line and the new line - looking weird. Only a CTRL-ENTER gives the result of creating a new line with the normal linespacing. This is also an undocumented feature AFAICS.

IMHO it's more intuitive (user-friendly) that the user gets just a new line when he presses ENTER (like in most applications). Inserting a paragraph is handy but not as frequently used as creating a new line and should be thus CTRL-ENTER.

Also please document the CTRL-ENTER feature.
