Not sure if this is the right board to ask this, but the \\ line break code often don't work. So instead of the text being moved down the line, the page just shows the double backslash. How do I fix them?

Mostly in Sandbox pages, although I've seen it happen in quotes.

Like showing this:

Line 1 text\\Line 2 text

Instead of

Line 1 text
Line 2 text

Naturally,

Line 1 text\\Line 2 text
is not proper formatting per Text-Formatting Rules.
Line 1 text\\
Line 2 text
Line 1 text
Line 2 text
is.
