Adding spaces in markdown #93

Open christophergandrud opened 8 years ago

A student asked:

I have not found a way to increase the amount of space between a text paragraph and a graph or two graphs. Is there any way to tell Markdown that I want more space between those things?

Yep, If you are outputting to PDF, you can just use LaTeX code like:

\vspace{10cm}

This creates a vertical space of 10 cm.

Similar things are possible in HTML. An easy one is just to add line breaks with <br>. You can stack these up to create more space.
