How to change paragraphing to MSWORD like behavior

Hi, I’m trying to find the setting to change paragraphing behavior, so that when I hit enter, i get a white line instead of continuing on the next line. Anyone know where this setting is?

You are making assumptions that may not be true. Give a link to a screen-shot so that others can see immediately what you mean. Also your OS + LO versions.

I think you are referring to the ‘space after’ setting in paragraph formatting. Go to FORMAT|PARAGRAPH and set an appropriate setting for ‘Spacing - Below paragraph’. To avoid having to reset it in every new document, make a new template or adjust the default template.

(You can also get to the ‘paragragh’ setting by right clicking in the document)
