Adding second line to text box

Community Beginner ,
Aug 30, 2018 Aug 30, 2018

I have a template and at the end of the template it shows a website url.  I want to add another url to it. When editing it I want to hit enter at the end thinking it's going to start a new line of text but it doesnt. Anyone know how to add a new line of text to the same animation???

Thanks

Sounds like a line spacing issue. Go to the character palette and change/increase this parameter:

what kind of template are you dealing with? you should just be able to click into the text layer and hit enter. if it's box text you may be able to grab the bounding box and extend it.

So for example i type something and the press enter but the cursor doesnt go down one nor does the text box increase in size. But when I start typing it just types words over the exisiting text

Hmm that's totally not working for me... the line just disappears when I hit enter mid-way through the sentence...

Somehow I had the leading set to zero. Auto made the second row of words drop and "fixed my issue"(user error).
