<i>Answer</i>: Yes. The "Force New Paragraph" setting will cause the Postive/Negative Text defined within your findings(s) to appear on a new line. It will not create a new paragraph in the traditional sense of placing a blank line between the last paragraph, rather you can think of it as forcing the rendered text to appear on a new line versus appearing after the end of the last sentence on the same line if this setting is unchecked.
