Customizing the Enter Key

You can configure use of the Enter key when you type messages to work the way you prefer.

To specify how the Enter key works when you chat:

  1. From the main window, click  and choose Preferences > Messages.
  2. Specify whether pressing the Enter key should send the message or insert a line break.

Tip: If you configure the system to send the message when you press Enter, you can add a new line in an instant message by pressing Ctrl-Enter.
