Re-Arranged text in posts

[Paul Dobbin]

Often I type my posts and hit "Submit" and all the lines are spread our an paragraphs converted to single line statements.

What causes this?  It often requires an edit to make sense.  I post from either my laptop or desktop, same results.

Are you using an ipad or phone to type your posts? If so that might be the problem. If you format your text to look right on a mobile device it may not display correctly here on the forum.

My desktop and laptop both reposition text when submitted and

require edit about 25% of the time.  I see no pattern or reason.

How about posting a before and after screen shot?

See my Floor Pit Post of 12/25/20 for an example of my problem.

I'm not seeing the trouble. Maybe only you are, I've run across that once with a friends machine.

Probably because you are putting returns at the end of the line.   Simply let the text wrap all by itself instead of putting a return at the end of every line and the problem will stop.
