Hi,
my Customer wants to insert Text himself without Html Knowledge. At least a simple Break.
Is it right that
Plain Text Pages without any Divs, Images and columns in the Html ... are working with a simple Return for next Line
but
Text included in <div> need <br> for a break?
Because a simple "Return" then does not work on the frontpage as break
Thx for a hint!

Re: Simple Text Layout Formatting
Good question.
For text that is NOT wrapped inside custom html tags, line-breaks will occur automatically from the X3 Markdown editor.
In the future, we will probably add a html wysiwig editor ... but then of course, you cannot add custom html tags, unless someone (like you) edit the "src" first and add a custom html element. Html wysiwig editors might allow more features for visual editing, but it is easier to break something, as is not as flexible and clean as markdown.
Yes, because as soon as you add a <div> (or any HTML), you are telling the editor "ok I am using HTML now so don't try to auto-format anything I add inside this html element". Line-breaks in HTML have no effect, so yes you would need to use <br> tag for line-break.Text included in <div> need <br> for a break?
Correct. "Return" has no effect when used inside html, and line-breaks need to be written with <br>.Because a simple "Return" then does not work on the frontpage as break
