Edit Your Research Narrative; Note the Difference Between ENTER and SHIFT-ENTER!
- Follow the guide for editing your profile until you reach the page of the MGH Research Institute Hub for editing the profile.
- Goto 'Research Narrative', and click on Edit.
- Click inside the editor for placing the cursor and start typing.
- Press the SHIFT-ENTER keys to insert a new paragraph. Creating separate paragraphs is very important for using the predefined paragraph styles, which is highly recommended because these styles include well-designed spaces between paragraphs. The best practice for good readability of texts on the web is a paragraph length of 2-4 sentences. News articles and editorials on nature.com are great examples of suitable paragraph lengths.
- Pressing ENTER inserts a line break, which should be avoided if not explicitly needed.
- Format a heading or apply any other paragraph style by placing the cursor inside the target text, then click on the drop-down menu Paragraph, and select the style. If the new style changes a larger section of the text than expected then use SHIFT-ENTER for inserting breaks between paragraphs.
