Hi,
Inside a Dropdown box, at the start and the end of the inserted text, a blue doted line appears when you scroll over the first and last line of the text. When you place your cursor over the blue box on the right side, if you click the box, a new paragraph will be created.
This option is not needed and is annoying. If I need a new paragraph at the beginning or the end of the of the Dropdown text box, I will press Enter or add paragraph tags (<p> <\p>) in the source.
What do you think?
Cheers!

There are times when Enter doesn't give you a paragraph below the line and
you need to click where you have shown. It is needed.

Hi,
Well, why is that? Even in this text box, if I press enter before or after a paragraph, it will create a new paragraph over or under.
Let's try it:
Here's paragraph 1.
I've just inserted this one between 1 and 2.
Here's paragraph 2.
Now, why can't RoboHelp do this?
I'm going to discuss this on my next discussion.

Your privilege but a few times I have needed it. Where that tends to occur is where there is nothing below the blue line.
I suspect Adobe have been working on improving not needing it but are retaining it until they are sure.

I have been through the scenarios where the blue line was needed and they now work without using it. I have asked Adobe if there are any remaining scenarios.

I found a scenario where it is needed while looking at one of your other posts.
Create a dropdown at the end of a topic and input the content. Now try to create a line below outside the dropdown without going to the source. For me it can't be done.
