How to add multi line breaks in preview mode

Help

It look me like a year until I discovered how to actually type the EM SPACE character lol :sweat_smile:

Here is a link to the “U+2003 : EM SPACE {mutton}” invisible character:

You have to click on “COPY” where it says “Click to copy and paste symbol”, then you have the invisible character in your clipboard.

Then you can paste it into an empty line in Obsidian. Beware, if you press enter, it will be deleted, but if you press shift-enter, a new line with the same character is created.

Good workaround:

  1. Make a template with EM SPACE character (or 3 of them). (I make an EM SPACE, and a normal empty line after, so that the next Enter-press doesn’t delete the EM SPACE).
  2. Use ‘Hotkeys for templates’ plugin, open plugin settings and switch on the EM SPACE template.
  3. Make a ctrl-space hotkey for inserting the EM SPACE template.
  4. Enjoy the beauty of infinite space and endless horizons in reading mode!
