Editing Cell as a Rich Text Field

✭✭✭✭✭

Hi

I thought that to get a carriage return within a cell you had to press 'Shift and Return' like other applications. It now seems that you have to press 'Ctrl (keyboard left one) and Return'. Is that right?

I've also just discovered editing a row as a form... (right click and edit) Never knew that! :)

Are there any better ways of editing text and paragraphs in a cell please?

Thanks

Cheers

Richard

    Richard;

    Most apps I use on a Windows based device - other than Word - require Alt-Enter to create a new line in a cell.

    What would "better" look like for you?

    Hi

    It sounds like different applications do it different ways.

    Better for me would be; to double click the cell and it pop up in a modal to edit directly like Airtable does, even within a Rich Text Editor would be even better.

    Thanks
