Hello, I was trying to add a new line to the “Alternate plugin repositories” field, but using Return or Shift+Return didn’t work. That just “entered” the text already present. I had to go to an external text editor and make the new line.
This will get easier in a future update. Currently, you can add a new line with ⌥⏎, which is the standard shortcut on the Mac to bypass Return-as-confirm behavior.
Good to know, thanks!
Not sure how ‘standard’ it really is (is there an actual standard it adheres to?). It seems to be roughly 50/50 whether an application uses Shift + Return or Alt + Return for this, with the other one just acting as Return with no modifier key.
“Standard” in the sense that this is the shortcut that Apple has designated for this action (insertNewlineIgnoringFieldEditor:, as it’s internally known). Whether other apps conform to this system or roll their own is sadly not always obvious.
