One of my colleagues was trying to make his first post in the community and wanted to share numbered steps. Since each step included more than a short phrase, he wanted to leave line breaks (i.e., spaces, or technically, increased leading) between each numbered item in the list. But he found that the auto-formatting prevented him from doing this. He shared this screen recording of his efforts and asked me "can we enable line breaks?"





The same thing happens when using bullet points. The only solution I had was to spend a little extra time undoing the auto-indenting that occurred when adding a number and period at the start of a line. So the list is no longer indented but at least it's a list that reads 1., 2., 3., with spaces in between each step.





Is there a better solution?
