Paragraph Spaces.

9 years ago

Hi all. I was just wondering if there was any options to change the spacing of the paragraphs. I noticed on EndMaster's stories that the spaces were normal, only a bit in between paragraphs. But on mine they seem to be huge spaces, Granted my first story was done on notepad and then copy pasted onto the site, so I had no idea of how big the spaces would be. But even the stories I'm working on on the actual site seem to have large spaces between them. Am I missing something here or what? I'd love to ask EndMaster but feel rather silly to be honest. It's like I'm missing something.

Thanks in advance.

 

P.S. If the responses come when I'm not at a computer I won't be able to respond on account of not having a real PC at home, I use a mobile and for some reason it won't reply to forum posts. But don't think I'm a douche, because I'm not. It just means I'm screwed in life lol.

Once again, thanks.

I think End writes his stories in another program and pastes them into the site.

I've heard the solution to the automatic spacing is to turn off rich text editing.
Or press shift+enter when you go down a space.

Indeed -- if you understand basic HTML, you can turn off the rich text editor and make the paragraph spacing anything you want (including using style sheets, if you want to get fancy).

I just write them in Word and turn off the rich text editor before copy/pasting the text on here.

I find you don't get a lot of formatting weirdness in general when you leave the RTE off for story writing purposes.
