Is your feature request related to a problem?

In collabora office android app, currently there is no way to insert line break within a cell in a spreadsheet. (Like in Libreoffice windows, we can use ctrl + enter to insert line break.)
Because of this, whenever I want to write multi-line content in a single cell (which is very common for my use case), I have to switch to another app and write the multi content there, copy it, double click the cell, hold press the cell and then click 'paste'.
Even to make a minor edit involving line break, I have to do all this work again for that cell.

Describe the solution you'd like

  1. Ideally ,add an icon in the toolbar (which is above the keyboard), upon clicking which, a line break will be inserted. The following screenshot is of Logseq android app which has done exactly the same:

  2. If not, then at least add an icon somewhere (even if it is hidden 1-2 clicks behind) in the app which inserts line break.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I tried the following keyboards (hoping they would give a separate button to insert line break but none of them do so): Heliboard, Florisboard, Samsung keyboard, Anysoftkeyboard ,GBoard, fossify keyboard and thumb key.

Actually the solution was fairly simple. Just use a keyboard application which has a ctrl key and then one can use ctrl + enter shortcut inside the cell to insert line break OR shift + enter inside the formula bar to insert line break.

That keyboard application is rare to find.

But, I have installed 'unexpected keyboard' from F-droid. And it is more than enough for my current needs.
