My Thread Presentation and Non Requested Emojis

[flossieskid]

Quick question:  I think I may have asked this question before: But why does my thread have breaks in the sentences and 
long spaces (not intended by me) appear on individual lines or change the look of the paragraph?  I type it out in straight
lines (on my computer, because I thought maybe it was because I was typing on my phone) but it STILL appears disjointed!

Also, in my last 2 posts, a weird emoji appears that I did not request.  Why does that happen?  I apologize for the look of
my post and I wanted readers to know I am not making the bizarre look of my threads.  Sometimes this happens and 
sometimes I can have many posts where it doesn't occur.  Very strange!  Any ideas why this happens?

The emoji is very easy to explain. It's because you typed 3 question marks in a row. That is the 'shortcut' code that automatically converts keyboard strokes into an emoji. Each available emoji has a code and the code for the emoji you are creating just happens to be 3 question marks in a row:

The disjointed sentences are a little more complicated. It's something called 'line wrap', which means that long sentences are broken down into small sections to fit into the viewing area of the page. To show you what I mean, I will retype this paragraph and intentionally force the page into displaying each line I type as a single sentence by hitting 'Enter' instead of 'Space' at the

end of each line.

end of each line.

If it works, the blue text should appear as 3 sentences with the first sentence ending with 'long sentences are', the second sentence ending with 'retype this paragraph', and the last ending with 'a single sentence'.

Because I marked each of the three lines as 'single sentences', and the fact that each line in the typing box is longer that the display box, the forum 'wraps' the end of the line which won't fit on the display page onto the next line, then begins the next sentence on the next line, repeating with the third sentence, giving you the broken, disjointed appearance.

I've looked back at a few of your earlier posts and sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't. Not knowing how you type, I can only guess that you are hitting 'Enter' when your sentence reaches the right side of your screen instead of 'Space', which would allow 'line wrap' to continue normally.

Like I said, it's complicated.

Now, I shall create the post and see if my 'blue text' experiment works as I expect it will.
