How to insert a line break in StoryMap text

JanetBrewster1

Hello All,

Is it possible to insert a line break within a block of text in a StoryMap? My specific example relates to bullets. Currently in order to include a bulleted list, you have to use a new text block, which to my eye is too far apart and makes the list look like a completely separate paragraph:

I've tried a workaround, to keep all text within the same text block by using spaces to "push" the text forward. But that leaves no space between the preceding text and the list, and looks scrunched:

I was hoping for a simple code to insert before the list to help with the formatting, like we could use <BOL></BOL> in a text box in ArcMap. The ability to insert a simple line break sure would be nice. Is this possible?

Thanks!

Janet

your "work-around" a soft return works in StoryMap text blocks - <shift>+<enter>. See below

Thanks so much, @JonathanMcD

Helpful to know, though it's not giving the result I was hoping for. The amount of space from a soft return is the same as using two text blocks, so I've still got that big gap within the paragraph.

I'll look into an Idea about more advance text formatting.

Are you sure as below is an example of a single text box with a soft return before the list, and below the divider is two text boxes with the list in the second. They look very different to me.

Yep, using the soft return gives me the text like below your divider. But in your example above the divider, your list is indented -- how did you do that?

Steps are nothing more than the following;

Add Text Box to StoryMap, write the first line(s) within the text box, then <shift and enter> pressed together, (this will create a new line), then hit the space bar a few times, type your list. Use <shift and enter> for each new line of the list.

Once done everything will be in a single text box (I've recopied the image with the text box highlighted)
