Secure note spacing of lines

Hello @bugwhat! 👋

Thanks for reporting the issue. Markdown editors handle line breaks differently than normal rich text editors, can you try the following:


Line one\
\
\
\
Line two


Does that allow you to see the appropriate line breaks when viewing the note with rich text formatting enabled?

So I disabled “format Using Markdown” and that created a whole different problem.
Disabling it did space my lines however many times, but then I could not view the rest of the note at the bottom, nor anyway to scroll or more to see it.

I can't reproduce this issue on my device. Can you tell me a little more about your note? How many characters does it have? Can you reproduce the issue using a new note that contains fake information so that you can post a screenshot of what you see?

I look forward to hearing from you. 🙂

Wow now I do not know where to start, because as I try to fix my original problem I keep discovering new problems.

See I never noticed any problem until I enabled (Format Using Markdown) and I think that enabling that caused a corruption of my secure notes to differ degrees.

See after disabling (Format Using Markdown) it is not un formatting the note back totally is my guess.

I found after disabling and re-enabling it put some lines in one of my notes. So I had to back space over the line to fix that.
That was weird!

So I enabled it maybe a month ago and have sense made several edits to my current secure notes.

So after a month of editing I noticed if I spaced some lines it would only space more than once while in edit mode, but not take after taping done.

So to fix that I disabled (Format Using Markdown).

So that fixed the spacing issue, then I noticed on a couple of notes it would cut off and not show a few of the last lines of the note, nor would it show the read more on those particular notes, however it would on my other notes that were too long.
Also I noticed of every note there are three dots on the end of each note whether it needs read more or not.

If I enable (Format Using Markdown) back, then it will show all of those two notes.

So with (Format Using Markdown) disabled I tried to copy the text of the two notes that were not showing all the note. Then I created new notes and pasted the text into the new notes to see what would happen and they did the same, so that did not work either.
If it did I was going to let them replace the corrupted notes.

My gosh what is up with the three periods after each note.

Your not gonna believe this if I disable (Format using mark down)
if I highlight a note text in done mode I can not highlight anything, but if I re-enable (Format using mark down) I can then highlight text.
So now I decided to keep (Format using mark down) enabled and then everything is fine accept were back to not being able to space between lines more that once.

Thank you for the detailed reports. The ellipses (three dots) and lack of ability to highlight the text of a Secure Note if markdown formatting is turned off are both known issues and in our developer's backlog to investigate further. I've added your reports to the internal issues open for the bugs.
