No, just hit the "ENTER" or "RETURN" button (whatever it says on your keyboard) to move to the next line just like a regular text editor.

For sure, that's what I would have expected, but this is what I get. See BEFORE and AFTER hitting the ENTER/RETURN Key. Is there a "Keep to ONE Line" Control?

Any other suggestions as I am needing to make separate Layers - bit annoying.

Cheers

Check the Leading setting on the Tool Options bar. Make sure it's set to zero.

Don't know if it will help or just annoy. xD

I have an old tutorial (made back with version 13 of PSP) - it covers kerning, leading, tracking, and all of the other available text options. It's 10 minutes long but I think I get to those options around minute 8. So you can skip a lot of it if you're not interested.

Of course, that did it. Set to ZERO and I don't get the Line overlap - I had a MINUS value which X6 was doing exactly what I was asking of it.

Thank you,

Grazie
