As the title says just updated from Lightroom Classic 10.4 to Lightroom Classic 11 and whilst the text is correct in the Caption box the spacing has changed.

Any ideas how to get it back to how it was?

Many thanks

Looks like the width of your right side panels is a bit larger in the second screen shot, and it looks like you used spaces to make the caption take up three rows (in appearance), to create line breaks. The second screen shot being wider provides just enough room for the spaces to show.

and to insert line breaks:

I haven't noticed any changes to the Caption text box.

Can you post a screenshot?

Please do not attach the screenshot, but use the Insert Photos button in the toolbar.

Thanks for your swift reply

This is how my captions were in Lightroom 10.4

And this is how they are since the upgrade to Lightroom 11

Not sure what to do here so any help would be much appreciated

Make sure you extract "showmetadata.lrplugin" to your Desktop or Documents folder and select that, rather than the .zip file.

According to the same post at Lightroom Forums (https://www.lightroomqueen.com/community/threads/caption-problem-lrc11.44099/), the problem appears to be that the OP's column width is now different. The original line spacing was apparently created by simply using spaces, so any subsequent change in the width of the caption box will mess up the original alignment. The OP has been advised to use carriage return in order to create a new line, not padding with spaces.
