Why do I not get a multi line code block?

Continuing the discussion from Variable types with * prefix:

Hi @build_1971

Are you using the post composer in the "Markdown editor" mode (as indicated by having the switch in the

position)? Or are you using it in the "rich text editor" mode (as indicated by having the switch in the A position):

It says A now…

never seen or used this switch…

After setting to md:

OK!
Great

Great!
thanks for your fast response and help!

Which version of the reply editor are you using ?
Markdown or rich text, and how did you enter the code ?

It seems similar to the bug I described here:

However, I have not found a way to reproduce the fault with code (only with content copied from the output panel in Arduino Cloud Editor).

From where did you copy that code in your misformatted post?:

I did not copy it.
I wrote it manually using tripple tick back (```).
In the A mode that gives me no option to start a new line. In MD mode it works as it always did...

Were you using a mobile device when you wrote it? I see there is a bug report about that here:

Hi pert,
Yes, that is exactly the same issue...
And I worked from android phone.
Groet, Koen.
