Spacing after a paragraph?

nicole@ebay and any other interested members--

I've noticed over the last several days that using the return/enter key after the end of a paragraph inserts two returns (aka a double spaced line). Generally when one hits the return/enter key, it simply advances one line immediately below the previous text, but now the software seems to be entering two.

Example:

The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog. <return/enter>

Takes me here . . . a double space away from the previous sentence. It is impossible to delete that second return. If I use the typical, traditional two returns after a paragraph, it now inserts four line spaces:

 

Like this ^^^^. That sure leaves a lot of empty space between paragraphs.

Is it just me? Have I hit a formatting button unknowingly? It appears to be happening on a few other posts I've read, but maybe other posters are noticing it and deleting that extra return, as I've been doing.

Any thoughts on iPhone users. We don’t have a shift-return option 🙂

I do not have an iPhone, but this looks like it might help:
