Description DaCoEx 2022-01-14 20:04:36 UTC 
It is not clear how to get a new line in a text box when annotating a screenshot.

In some software it is
* ENTER
* ALT+ENTER
* SHIFT+ENTER

Here I found out it's:
SHIFT plus ENTER

There could be a tool tip or some sort of help.

Pushed by ndavis into branch 'master'.

Add support for new lines and tabstops in text annotations

You can now add a new line to a block of text by pressing Enter/Return.

Tabstops are 8 'x' characters wide (QPainter default).

I think Enter/Return is sufficiently obvious to mark this as fixed.
