The Web Page Editor supports both paragraph returns (ENTER or CTRL+M) and line breaks (SHIFT+ENTER or CTRL+SHIFT+M). These elements are useful in controlling the layout of your web pages. For example, you can use a line break in a bulleted paragraph to create the following layout.
This is a bulleted paragraph.
This is an indented line that is part of the first bulleted paragraph. It was created using a line break.
This is another bulleted paragraph created with a paragraph return.
You can use non-breaking spaces (CTRL+SHIFT+Space) to keep two or more adjacent words in the same line of text. For example, you can use non-breaking spaces between the parts of a multiword product name to ensure that the name always appears as a unit and is never broken across lines by text wrapping. This provides some control over how your web pages are displayed in the user's browser, even if the browser window is resized.
The alignment and indentation options determine the horizontal position of paragraphs in a web page.
Align Left: The paragraph is aligned with the left margin and the text is uneven on the right side. This is usually the default text alignment setting for the languages with left to right direction.
Align Center: The paragraph is aligned symmetrically along the vertical axis and the text is uneven on the both sides. This setting is often used in titles or table cells.
Align Right: The paragraph is aligned with the right margin and the text is uneven on the left side.
Justify: The paragraph is aligned with both left and right margin; the text is not uneven on either side. Flexible spacing between letters and words stretch or contract to fill the page.
Increase Indent: Increases the spacing between a web page element (paragraph, list item or image) and the left margin or right margin.
Decrease Indent: Decreases the spacing between a web page element (paragraph, list item or image) and the left margin or the right margin.
Note: You can also use the Align Left, Align Right, Increase Indent, and Decrease Indent icons to horizontally position graphics in a web page. The left and right alignment options create a word-wrap effect, with the adjacent text wrapping around the other side of the graphic. Deselecting all alignments positions the image at the baseline with no word-wrap.
