I am often working in other windows but have a lot of teams messages that I need to address. This results in my sending meaningless messages accidentally when I hit ENTER thinking I am in a different window but I am really in teams. How do I by default prevent the ENTER button from sending a message?

    You get five stars and a bump for "Where is the outrage."

    lol. :)

    Often these forums are useful only for venting. And then at some point someone is going to come by and suggest we reinstall the OS and/or submit it as a feature request.

    It is just plain UNBELIEVABLE that all major software companies WILL NOT fix the basics first, they will not implement the BASIC THINGS first, they won't listen to the user base FIRST, they won't listen to the MOST SENIOR LEVEL and MOST EXPERIENCED users FIRST. Instead they play with colors, change things for no reason, and make products slower and more buggy. Where is the outrage. Why does everyone just put up with it.

    You are confusing the application(s) that are the subject of this thread.

    This is about those apps that don't have the option that you are pointing out.

    However, by pointing out the one that does have an option you have proved that it is indeed possible and the developer of other such apps are simply being obtuse.

    I am a user like you and only showed the way to use Teams.

    What kind of job do you do if you don't have time to push a button that only needs a split second ?
    I know that it is annoying but that is the way it works for now and we all try to make the best use of it.

    :) I'm not THAT busy! but Teams is the only program i use where carriage return doesnt work, in contrast most of my job is with autocad which is pretty much infinitely customisable
