Formatting is lost in blocks editor with Types custom field. Issue was first reported by me here:
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/views-content-template-not-rendering-toolset-single-field-block-properly/

I'm sorry but this is a HIGH priority bug to get working as it makes content display unprofessional and unworkable.

Please advise as to when this will be fixed!!??

Detailed description:
As explained in above post, a WYSIWYG field looks fine in block editor but when rendered on the front end all carriage returns are lost. Bold and italics remain but it is all one long paragraph!!! Please fix this asap. I've tried all the blocks with the custom field:
Single Field
Fields and text
Shortcode
Custom Html

And none of them retain the formatting. Weird thing is if I put two blocks in containing the shortcode for the field, the second one works. But I can't seem to find a workaround of this bug.

I've also noticed that when I first create the content template, that it works the first few times (displays with formatting) but then seems to 'break' and lose formatting when I start to edit the template (create blocks etc).

Update: This happens with the post content field too so it's NOT just with custom field!
