Expected / Desired Behavior / Question

If we add RichText control on classic pages, in web part edit mode (not only page edit mode), it should allow user to enter new line in the Rich control.

Observed Behavior

User is not able to enter a new line if web part is in edit mode.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Add a Richtext web part on classic page
2. Click on 'Edit Web part' option
3. Make sure classic property pane (where we can see configure option) is visible.
4. Start typing text in the Rich text web part and hit Enter button to have a new line added to the Rich text.
5. You won't be able to hit Enter or new line.

I have below code used:

HI @Mayure5h

Without Editing the Webpart it works fine

Instead of editing the webpart edit the page and start typing in the rich text field

I have the exact same issue.

@kunj-sangani
The problem with leaving the panel closed is that if you are trying to set a prop from the webpartprop pane it will just not set the property. I tried to debug it but I have no idea what can be causing this.

I just switched to draftjs, and it does not cause this issue. implementation is trickier though.
