Carriage Return Not Working

**Bruce Ramsey** · 12-02-2014, 09:15 AM

Cant get the carriage return to work. Editor ignores the CR. Any clues how to get add spaces between paragraphs?

This is something new that popped up?

Are you on a new computer, browser or keyboard? Nothing has changed on this end.

Anyone else having this issue?

Sometimes it fixes itself.

Sometimes it works when you go back and edit the post.

Sometimes copy and paste into Notepad (removes all formatting) then copy and paste from Notepad to here.

Sometimes nothing works to fix it.

Sometimes it always works right.

Good info, thanks!

I am planning an update the first part of next year. Hopefully that will be corrected.

Apparently the forum contributes to missing letters too?

"Uderwood"

I guess I shudda typed this on my 1915 L. C. Smith No. 8, serial number 2 ...

(Or one of my other antique typewriters.)

My grandmother had an Underwood that she used regularly. I took typing on a manual typewriter in high school. Don't recall the manufacturer. One of the most useful classes I ever took.

I took typing in 9th grade, learned that I could disassemble and reassemble a typewriter within one class period ... teacher freaked out a bit though ...

Typing class was quite useful, from there I ... learned how to take other things apart and put them back together quickly ...
