    Hi,

     

    I’m trying to go through the tutorials of Inkscape, but as I tried the line spacing exercise and set the spacing to 1.00px, the whole paragraph just disappeared. I’m really confused and would really appreciate it if anyone can help me with this. Mine Inkscape is the 1.1.2 version.

    Thank you!

    What do you expect from that tiny value? This will just work with 1px text height and I doubt that´s your goal. Everything smaller than the font height  will end in overlapping.

    The spacing you mentioned is spacing between baselines. If the value was smaller than the font size, line will overlap.

    @miamaelia Thank you for the reply! I tried it several times, but it keeps being like that whenever I changed the unit to pixel.

    If you are using the Tutorials in Inkscape's help menu: I'd disregard the information on using the Text/Font dialog, and use the Text tool controls in the bar above the workspace.

    If you are using some other tutorials, please share which ones.
