Create new paragraph after hitting Enter once instead of twice.

  • Overview

  • Updates4

Simple plugin to change default Obsidian "Enter" behaviour:

In default Obsidian/Markdown syntax single "Enter" creates only a soft line break. To create new paragraph you need to double press "Enter".

With this plugin single "Enter" creates a new paragraph just like in normal text editor.

Installation

Obsidian Community

Turn on Community plugins -> Search for "Paragraph Break" -> Turn on.

Link to plugin in Obsidian Community: community.obsidian.md/plugins/paragraph-break

Manual Installation

  1. Turn on community plugins
  2. Create paragraph-break folder in your vault/.obsidian/plugins folder and copy main.js and manifest.json from release.
  3. Turn on plugin in settings

Notes

New paragraph is only created in normal text editing. When you are creating a list or code block, there is default behavior (soft line break).
