MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / June 2004Shift+Enter and justification
When I press Shift+Enter(I want to move short words from the end of the line to the beginning of the next one) in my master's thesis document, the line does not justify! When I create a brand new document and try to do the same (I copy some text from the original document), it does!!!! What is going on - I searched "Style" settings, but found nowhere, where to change settings responsible for non-justification after using Shift+Delete. Can anyone help? Without justification the text looks bad. I use MSWord 2000 Thanks in advance Szymon Hi, corsair. If the lines before the one where you tried to enter a manual line break are justified, then you probably just pressed Enter, instead of Shift+Enter. If you click on the Show All (¶) button in the standard toolbar, do you see a ¶ symbol at the end of the line that does not justify as you expect? > When I press Shift+Enter(I want to move short words from the end of the line > to the beginning of the next one) in my master's thesis document, the line [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Thanks in advance > Szymon Hello Thank you for your answer. I am afraid, however, that is not the case. The other lines are justified, I press Shift+Enter, the "return arrow" appears (when I click Show All), the text goes to the next line, but the end of the original line becomes blank - it is not justified. In fact, when I copy the same part that won't justify in my original document to a brand new document and press Ctrl+J - the text justifies!! But only in this new document, it does not work in the original one. I have tried diferent styles, but it won't justify in any of them. > Hi, corsair. If the lines before the one where you tried to enter a manual line break are justified, then you probably just pressed Enter, instead of Shift+Enter. If you click on the Show All (?) button in the standard toolbar, do you see a ? symbol at the end of the line that does not justify as you expect? Hi, corsair. Click on Tools | Options | Compatibility. About a third of the way down the list of "options", there is one that says "Don't expand character spaces on the line ending Shift-Return". If that option is checked, then uncheck it. > Hello > Thank you for your answer. I am afraid, however, that is not the case.

Thank you very much for your posts, especially the last one:-))). I have always believed Usenet is the best as for troubleshooting and you are the proof I have been right. Thanks again Have a nice evening:) Szymon PS. I wonder how it became "checked" - I probably pressed some shortcut unwittingly... > Hi, corsair. Click on Tools | Options | Compatibility.
