Line feed (shift-enter) does not work. about tomboy-ng HOT 5 CLOSED

That is a much, much more serious problem I am afraid. The whole Bullet code is a very ugly hack on top of a KMemo. Unfortunately, KMemo does not do bullets the way most users expect it to. So, I intercept keystrokes, and manage the bullets manually. There is, simply no way we can handle multi paragraph bullet items I am afraid.

Given that it messes up so badly (I was unaware of that), I wonder if I should disable Ctrl-Shift, at least when within a bullet ? Doing nothing would be better that allowing the Ctrl-Shift to go through to the KMemo.

Sorry about that but is is a real "no fix" problem.

It's not actually a multi-paragraph bullet (check out the original Tomboy). It seems to do the equivalent of adding
at the end of the line.

Yes, disabling SHIFT-ENTER in bullets would be better. Then you simply can't mess it up. Disabling also means that you have to deliberately press ENTER to make a new bullet.

Weird, I wonder why it doesn't work, but I really don't know the code at all, and am very grateful for all your work. ❤️

Hey! My code in the top comment did not show <SHIFT><ENTER> anywhere. Github must have interpreted the angle brackets as HTML tags and removed them. I've now written &gt ; etc.

I'm glad that you figured it out anyway.

OK, shift-Enter does make sense, I can replicate very strange things when I try that here. So, drop it on floor anytime. Thanks, useful fix.
Will be fixed in next release and that will be soon.
