Today's Editor Quirk - Extra Blank Lines

  • April 25, 2011

It seems the editor now (and possibly for the past several days) wants to insert extra blank lines.  Not the ones you normally get while typing, but extra ones between typing and when the post shows up in the thread.

When it does it, I have found I can even edit the post and remove the extra blank lines, only to have them reinserted after the post is updated again (or maybe that's just the "sometimes the edit doesn't take" bug rearing its head).

A minor annoyance, to be sure, but just one more little thing wrong, raising the blood pressure incrementally...

    I come to these Adobe product forums to 1-Learn and 2-Help (when I can) but I will have to say, I could ALMOST believe the people who think Jive was selected by Adobe as a planned way to drive people away, so Adobe would not have to deal with them

    If somebody had FORCED Adobe to use Jive, I think Adobe would see it as an act of industrial war!

    Oh well... since Jive is the only game in town for Adobe products, I guess I'll just continue to work around all the "quirks" of the forums

    Yep, the phantom Line Break has been an undocumented "feature" for some time. There are several threads on it, plus some fixes, in this forum.

    If I recall the "fix," it's to add two (?) Line Breaks at the beginning of a Reply, then just Backspace.

    I switched to Chrome from IE7, and have yet to have one... uh-oh, probably just jinxed myself with that statement.

    Good luck,

    Yes, Jive has certainly been a wild, strange ride for a couple of years.

    PS - so far, the Line Break Jinx has still not struck my Chrome
