Leading problem, Affinity Publisher


Recommended Posts

Hi @Iztok,

In the Character panel, set the leading override to Auto…

In the Paragraph panel, set the leading to Exactly, then set the required leading value…

This should have worked for the next paragraph, but instead, I have to use Enter and Command for normal line breaks, which isn’t logical. It should be the other way around.

But thanks for tip

Hi @Iztok,

Set your leading using the Paragraph panel rather than Leading Ovveride in the Character panel...

I'm not sure how you have things set, but for me, Return makes a Paragraph break and will use that Paragraph After setting, while Shift+Return makes a Line Bresk. This is a common configuration on most software I've ever used.

I don't care for the default 12pt Paragraph After that Affinity sets, so it's one of the first defaults I change when setting type.
