D7/D4.0.3

I know that this has been mentioned (and fixed) before but when our users enter returns into a note field the carriage returns are not shown when viewing. They are when editing.

I've just tried this on the demo and got the same result

Does the lack of any reply mean that this is working-as-designed? Or does no-one else suffer from this phenomenon?

Hi,

I would assume that's a bug. The solution discussed for a similar issue for activities was to test if the content contains any html tag, and if it's a plain text, tranform new lines to <br>

Could you implement a fix?
