# insertSoftNewline

By default, there will be a new content block whenever you press the enter key.
However in some cases you need to override this behaviour to avoid living the
current block.

## Usage

The `insertSoftNewline` utility will add a soft newline and will help you to
continue editing in current content block.

```ts
insertSoftNewline(state: State, stateHanlder: StateHandler) => State
```

## Example

An example of `insertSoftNewline` usage:

```ts
import { useState } from 'react';
import { EditorState } from 'draft-js';
import { Editor, insertSoftNewline } from 'contenido';


const Demo = () => {
  const [editorState, setEditorState] = useState(
    EditorState.createEmpty()
  );

  return (
    <>
      <Editor
        editorState={editorState}
        onChange={setEditorState}
        editorRef={editorRef}
      >
      <button
        onMouseDown={(e) => {
          e.preventDefault();

          insertSoftNewline(editorState, setEditorState)
        }}
      >
        Soft Newline
      </button>
    </>
  )
}

export default Demo;
```
