Line Spacing

[Wayne]

Please consider allowing a single line space without this automatically creating a seperate verse. Some songs only have a coupole of lines (albeit repeated) in a verse and then move on to the next verse on a separate screen.

We get around this at the moment by having a single character "." on the line that seperates the two verses it works but is not particularly pretty

The best way to get around this is to type on a new line ALT+255 (on the number keypad).

This enters a blank space, but as it is not a space but character 255 on the keyboard (space is character 32) it does not force a new paragraph.

Notes: Must use the number keypad, must hold down ALT whilst entering all numbers, and if using a laptop without a number keypad you probably will find small numbers in blue/grey on the main keys (U=4 usually). To use these keys you also need to hold down the Fn (function) key as well as the ALT key.

This blank space is also useful for indenting lines, as multiple spaces at the start of a line do not work (I think).

Tried that but oh my! When i hold down the Fn and Alt keys and then press K (to get a 2) my whole screen display rotates 180 degrees. Just spent 15minutes undoing this. Any ideas?

What you may find is that you can press Function and then another key is marked 'Num Lock' or something like that. If you press Function and Num Lock, then you can press Alt 255 and then press Function and Num Lock to bring the keyboard back to normal.

To undo the screen rotate, did you try the number 8(8) key instead? If the 2(K) key rotated it one way, the 8 probably rotated it back again. Either that or 4(U) to rotate left and 6(O) to rotate right.
