Soft Return (Shift Return) in the latest version of Keynote seems to be Broken

Really dislike this change. I use Line Breaks in Keynote all the time and it's going to take a long time to change my muscle memory to a new (and less convenient) shortcut. I hope they change it back; totally unneeded change.

Every other app on my Mac utilizes shift+return to create a line break. Apple changing this keyboard shortcut to control+return is more evidence in my book that Apple's software teams increasingly have no idea what they're doing (yes, that makes me sound like an old man… but at age 40, having used Apple computers since I was 6 years old, I kind of am one). An utterly pointless change that's out-of-touch with how pro users get work done.

I am really sorry to say, but Apple broke the SHIFT+RETURN soft line break. I now have to use CTRL+RETURN and that – at first – looks really ugly, because the cursor is placed indented to the latest horizontal position. Once you start typing it "jumps" to the correct left margin. But Apple, please, fix this! It feels like a bug and I'd bet my panties that it is.

'Shift + Enter' is replaced with 'Ctrl + Enter'. For sure it is not a convenient change. If this change was made by mistake, it should be corrected.

PAGES Shift+Return Keystroke for soft ret… - Apple Community

I just fixed my situation. There's no way I'm allowing Apple to force me to use two hands instead of one hand to create a LINE BREAK. Shift-Return to create a line-break is a universal keystroke, and programmers should not be messing with that perfect key stroke.

Solution, I reinstalled Pages v.13.1

Yeah, back to shift-return for the line-break.

I will never migrate to 13.2.

Apple did it to Pages too!

It's utter ridiculous to change a ONE HAND keystroke to a TWO HAND keystroke!

Wow, what a horrible change! Please revert to the previous keyboard shortcut.

Agreed, and nearly every non-Apple application uses Shift+Return for a line break, including Windows. Apple seems to think they know what WE want; isn't that the Microsoft approach?

Here is an idea for an app developer: A tiny app that puts Shift+Return back where it belongs.

Now the soft return is ctrl+shift+enter on a U.S., ABC-Extended, or U.S. International keyboard input type.

Weird, but whatever.

Don't change this universal function; please revert back, it's just annoying!
