    Default Playbook / texting / while bridged

    While the Playbook is bridged to the BB:
    --Is there a way to adjust the settings on the Playbook, specifically the settings for the Text application?
    --Circumstance: I never use "enter" to send a text, instead I use the setting that "enter" = line break.
    --The default with the Playbook (while bridged) and Text is for "enter" = send. I would like to adjust that setting.

    I could be wrong, but I would say probably not. The main reason, how would you send it? The alternative when using your phone is to click the trackpad, or BB button and choose 'send'. How would you do that step on the PB?

    You can always use the HTML command for a line break: Shift+Enter. The PlayBook will show a single line for the SMS, but the output will be formatted as you want it.

    My guess is there will be a lot more functionality with BB10. I love it that I can text from my PB and use it constantly, but there are several problems with it.

    This: "You can always use the HTML command for a line break: Shift+Enter. The PlayBook will show a single line for the SMS, but the output will be formatted as you want it."
    Worked just as described. Thank you very much for that help.
