Hello, I am loving the new card addition under the Description section that now allows for different formatting options.  However, since this addition, whenever I need to add a new line in, it places a large gap in between the text above which makes our lovely cards look untidy and unorganised.  Is there a way I can reduce this space that I have missed?

Originally looks like this:

Then like this with the work "test" added

Example - word Test added.png

It would also be great if the formatting options available here, such as Horizontal line and underline could also be added at some stage.

Thank you

Stacey

Hi Stacey,

Thanks for reaching out!

If you'd like a smaller space between new lines, you can press Shift+Enter which will enter a new line right below the text.

As for adding a horizontal line, you can do so by selecting 'Divider' in the + dropdown, or by typing --- in the description field:

Right now, it's not possible to underline text. I definitely understand how this could be helpful, so I've flagged this as a feature request with the product team.

You can read more about the new editor here: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-articles/New-Editor-in-Trello/ba-p/2038725/

Please let us know if you have any other questions, and we'll be happy to help.

All the best,
