Soft return and formatting query
Posted: 2005-11-13 04:15:37
Forgive me if this has been covered elsewhere. I am fundamentally lazy, and searching hundreds of topics hasn't revealed what I really want to know (okay, so I only spent at most 10 minutes looking, but I get bored easily
).
So, here's the beef: Soft return. Great, thanks for finally supporting it in NWE, guys, but it doesn't work, does it?
I mean, I set a document so I have a hanging indent. Each hard return takes me back to the extreme left so I can start another heading/topic, with paragraph spacing. A soft return should take me back to the indent/tab position and not have paragraph spacing, but in reality it does exactly the same as a hard return. Huh?
Most times, I want a soft return to take me to the indent position, because I want to continue the same topic for a bit. I do this all the time in laying out print documents (QuarkXPress or InDesign, for example).
Or am I missing something?
