How do I enter more than one item at a time in quick entry?

In OF1, there is a setting that allows you to change how the enter key functions in the quick entry window. I had it set so that hitting return allowed me to add additional items before hitting CMD+S to save all the entered items to the inbox.

Is there a way to enable this behavior in OF2? Hitting enter in quick entry closes the quick entry window, whether or not I have “Classic Mode” or “Modern Mode” selected under General in preferences.

After typing your first entry, hit Ctrl+return (twice, which might be a bug) to add another item.

Thanks, that works! I still think it should be a configurable option, or should behave like the selected outline option. I’ll send this as feedback.

Could not remember the keystroke for this today and it was driving me nuts. Thanks again for posting the answer!
