If you using RichText enter key not adding newline. So depends on

<div>I don't think that multiline support is critical. The
problem of changing TextArea to a TextField, is that when
writing long texts, altought you are writing only one line,
TextArea expands in a multilineal way, which is easier to
edit, while TextField mantains the widget size and the text
moves.</div>

</div>
<div>I remember that Mitakuuluu2 [1] [2] app had a nice
conversation input. A widget that expands in a multilineal way
with a custom enter action. I had a glance at the code, and i
find it very hard to understand (i'm a begginner at qml). I'll
try to reuse that code, any help on understand it will be
appreciated =).</div>

<br>
Did you try text.substr(0, text.lenght-1) to remove the last
char?<br>
<br>
Also, if the multiline support is important for your UX,
perhaps you could open a Dialog when the text is clicked,
where you could accept the edits without EnterKey.<br>

<div>> Uhh, that's bad news =(, i'll have to
use TextField instead and forget of having multineal
support.<br>
> When i said shift+enter, i wasn't refering to
actually touching both keys at the same time, i was
thinking in something like caps lock (like entering
upper cased letters in the virtual keyboard). When you
hit the shift in the virtual keyboard, it sticks and you
can input uppercased letters without multitouch support.
I was wondering if with the enter key could be done
something similar, i.e. normal enter would trigger the
action shift+enter (not actually pressing both keys at
the same time, but like uppercased letters) would input
a newline.<br>
