Question

Why doesn't it begin a new paragraph when I press "enter?"

Supposedly, when in paragraph mode, you can begin a new paragraph by pressing "Enter" in Windows.  But, when I press "enter" it commits and takes me out of paragraph editing mode.  This is very frustrating.  What is the remedy?

Can you give some more context?  textFlow.configuration.manageEnterKey controls this behavior.  Flex, for example, might well set it to false.  Even better would be a sample app that demonstrates the problem.

Thanks,

I only experience the problem when I'm trying to do paragraph text in Adobe CS4. I have a Lenovo laptop that has 2 enter buttons: one with the number keys and the second with the alphabet keys. For whatever reason, both enter keys "commit" the text when pressed. I did find out that if I press the FN key with the Enter Key, then it takes me to the next paragraph. But, that is a little "weird" since regular paragraph text doesn't work like that. Can this be changed in my settings?

Thanks,

What version of TLF are you using?

import flashx.textLayout.BuildInfo;

trace(BuildInfo.kBuildNumber);
