Facebook messages

[Segilla]

How do you start a new paragraph in a FB msg! Pressing the return key sends the message.

[woofgang]

dunno, not sure you can.

[Mamyalynne]

Shift and return.

[pizza]

Good ? Segilla and does that def wrk mamyalynne

[Mamyalynne]

will go try...

[Mamyalynne]

yes

[Mosaic]

What a good question - and does that definitely work, Mamyalynne?

Thought I'd make a stand for proper English.

[Mamyalynne]

yes

[ChuckFickens]

You could just take the tick out of the "press enter to send" option just under where you type the message.

But shift + return will also work.

[Segilla]

I can't see the "press enter to send" option. Shift + Return does work but the cursor has to be put somehwre else in the message otherwise nothing happens.

[daffy654]

Chuck, I don't have that on Facebook. There is nothing at all below the comment box.

[ChuckFickens]

I agree with mosaic... if you want people to understand you, use something close to proper english. it's not that hard to type the extra couple of letters and it won't cost you anything.

[ChuckFickens]

Ahhh....

Now.. by facebook messages are we talking about messages, or facebook chat?

[ChuckFickens]

Or status updates... etc :)

I assumed "facebook messages" meant.... well facebook messages.

[Mamyalynne]

Yes that check box is on 'private messaging' for 'comment' need to use keys

[Mosaic]

Pizza - thank you for your kind wishes; and yes, teaching has work out excellently for me and for my many students.
Clarity of expression in word or speech is a gift to be treasured.
