Tabbing paragraphs and single space between them. So simple, yet I'm lost! SOS!

Okay, the snippet below creates space between paragraphs and works in editing and reading views.

It also creates the appearance of a tab at the start of each paragraph in editing views. But for the indentation to work in the reading view, your paragraphs need to have a blank line between them. That is, two line breaks.

Here’s what to do:

  1. Add this snippet: (how to add snippets)
/* paragraph-writing class
	indents first lines of paragraphs, and adds space after paragraphs
*/
		
	/* editing views */
	.markdown-source-view.paragraph-writing .cm-line {
		padding-bottom: 1.5em;
		text-indent: 2em;
	}
	
	/* reading view */
	.paragraph-writing p {
		text-indent: 2em;
		white-space: pre-line;
	}
  1. In your note, add the cssclasses property and enter paragraph-writing as a value:

The result looks like this:

From now on, you could have Templater add the class to all new notes you create in the folder.
