How to enter "new line" in node without exiting?

@linosia97 -

Nope - nothing wrong with the Ctrl-Enter action you are doing. It is pretty odd that it jumps out of editing mode. Feels more like a bug than a design choice. @Marina, it has been a couple of weeks since the support ticket was entered if I go by the date stamp above - any chance of escalating this?

I would also add that it happens on both Mac OS Catalina 10.15.4 and on Windows 1909 (bootcamp).

I have MacBook Air 2017

That’s great @Marina - I knew there had to be a shortcut and Shift was pretty much the only key I didn’t think of!

Yes, finally, thanks!

I’ve searched the help and yes -- shortcut wasn’t there (before I posted about it). So now I hope everything is in place)

Although why Cmd + Enter half worked then, if it shouldn’t do a new line at all? o_O

Yep -- tested -- Shift + Enter worked :)

Also info in help also updated - thanks!

For Android users: I stumbled on a way to enter linebreaks in the current Android app. Just sharing this info.

Most of the time, hitting the return key closes the node and creates a new one below it. Unless the keyboard is still processing the word, as is indicated by the word being underlined. In this particular situation Miro inserts a newline AFTER the cursor.

So to add a line to an existing node, I position the cursor at the end of the text. Then enter a space followed by for example ‘bb'. Miro enters the newline and I hit backspace twice to remove the excess characters
