Why can I no longer indent each new paragraph in the text capsules? I noticed this a while back-I went to do some editing on an older hub and when I saved the capsule, the indent was gone. This drives me crazy!
I prefer the look of indented paragraphs because I think it makes the text look neater and more put together. It's just a personal (probably OCD ) thing and I've been quietly dealing with it in hopes it would somehow magically come back but it hasn't.
So, I'm formally asking---can we please have the option to indent a line? Pretty please??
Sure, I'll bring it up in our next community meeting! I didn't even know the option had disappeared... thanks for bringing it up!
Hi again To Start Again!
I brought this up in our community meeting yesterday only to discover that the move was actually intentional! Indeed, to make formatting on HubPages more uniform, we chose to make indentation impossible (it is generally seen as unnecessary for online formats).
I am sorry to be depriving you of your preferred formatting method, but at least I can provide our reasoning behind the limited paragraph formatting options we offer. I hope that counts for something. ^_^;;
lol thanks Simone- I appreciate your bringing it up and letting me know! That's one of the great things about this place
No worries, I guess I'll just have to conform hahaha
I wonder if tab would work. Someone else can try it. I'm not sufficiently motivated.
hahaha let me stretch my finger and press tab
it makes it go to the next option, takes you away from the text or at least it did the last time I tried...
I am equally unexplained as to this post.
I tried tab before. I thought i replied that but I'm not motivated enough to go back and check lol
It just takes you to the next option for the capsule or out of the capsule or something I don't remember exactly but it didn't work...
Whatever you do, do not do ctrl<snipped>.
I also see '--' a lot lately. Do I need to go back and take english 101 again at 51?

How does one indent a paragraph in a text capsule? Is this even possible to do?
by Liz Elias 12 years ago
Ok, I apologize for bringing this up again, but I cannot find the original thread in which I asked, and other threads on the matter say "inactive--do not post."Sooo... MY problem seems to be the opposite of what other folks are asking about white space--they want to eliminate it.I WANT...

I think I asked this before. Is there any way to indent paragraphs in text capsules? Non-break spaces, white spaces and tabs get stripped out from the HTML. Formatting text as block quotes seems to be the only way to attempt it, but there's no control over the amount of indentation.

When formatting a Word Doc Kindle eBook, do you indent the paragraphs?I have heard a couple of writers say that for non-fiction eBooks, you don't indent. I have also heard that Kindle will add indentations. Is this true? Is it kosher to not indent?

This is quite the noob question & I have published for a long time -- but how do I indent -- lets say for instance a bullet or something? Every time I try and indent with the space bar or something, it just auto fixes the paragraph or sentence when I save the capsule. This is something I...

I'm so saddened to see the lack of integrity in honor around us and so much of it is accepted. Celebrities lie to the public, break contracts, and mislead their fans. (e.i. Favre who kept telling everyone time and again that he was really retired and then changed his mind despite...
