Line Breaks

JD

I'm trying to fix a line break in the middle of an email address. The manual states "However, if you want to preserve line breaks within a paragraph, you can use a space followed by a plus sign (+) or set the "Hard Breaks" option for the paragraph."

When I enter " +" in the editor between the word prior to the email address and the address, I just see a space character and a plus sign. The combination is not being treated as a line break.

I'm also not finding the referenced Hard Breaks, which I assume, based on the wording, is a paragraph level option.

Cheers,
Jon

Can you give us a short code example?

The hard breaks are based on this: https://docs.asciidoctor.org/asciidoc/latest/blocks/hard-line-breaks/

Here are screenshots of the editor and HTML preview.

After looking at the "Inline line break syntax" section (just up the page from the hardbreaks section in your reference), I see that they are inserting a space, a plus sign, then a return. I was reading the manual reference as only requiring a space and a plus sign.

I've been writing most of my documentation in Word and Pages until now and for those of us coming from those tools, a wee bit more detail is helpful.

The Asciidoctor site is comprehensive but intimidating. Trying to find what I want is often frustrating. I'll look for it under one term, when they call it another.

So you can chalk this one up to not referring back to the source documentation.

Cheers,
