Good news for "adders"

TP have changed the formating for individual notes.

"Yes we changed the formatting for individual notes. We made it more user friendly. New lines are preserved without you needing to place html tags like <br>

However we tried our best not to loose the original formatting. Please give us an example of where we went wrong and we will see that can be done."

"loose" - their spelling, not mine

Just tried it - didn't work :(
Like the bigger boxes though

Latest message from TP

"We have recalled the layout changes in the individual notes till be can iron out some glitches."

"till" - their spelling not mine

Still - hopefully we can look forward to it in the future :-)

Sounds like it'll be good, if they get it to work, just as long as we don't have to re-enter what's already there!!!!

No - they say we don't have to re-enter anything.

It's actually working on the editing page - it keeps spaces, so makes separate notes clearer to see.

What about bold text, and underlining?

Doesn't mention that - only the line spaces.

It only seems to work when you're editing, but not when you save. When you go back into the editing page, it has kept the spaces, so just makes the information clearer, if you need to add or insert text.

right so it won't save it so we still need the <br>
but when you go back to edit it has saved it in edit mode

not much help though as we need the break lines in save mode!

so we all need to keep the <br> until they sort it

Will all those adding to Bcc pls check how they add as I think that TP have now sorted this

I have just tried to add something with the <br> in and it gave too may breaks

So just add as you would normally type without the <br> save it and see how it looks
