Leading Not Applied

[Skarjune]

In my first test of Publisher Beta, I could not adjust leading manually or through style. No error, no nothing. So, I've given up testing, as I can't even start up typography work. Using OS X 10.11.6  

Example of 12/24 pts

Turn off button "Enable baseline grid"  on a right side of a tool bar

It is off. Toggling On and Off makes no difference. Leading is not functional in any way.

Thanks anyway.

I am able to adjust leading both using "text styles", baseline grid, and manual override. I work on a PC running Windows 10 (64-bit).

I see that you are running AffPub-beta on a Mac (you mention in your post you are using OS X 10.11.6). You might want to post in the Affinity Publisher beta forum for Mac OS if you already have not done so. Maybe someone else has run into the same issue with the app as you have. Good luck!

Hi Skarjune

Leading seems to be working here for me on Mac. Are you able to provide any video or screenshots of what you are seeing for us to look into? 

Thanks

In Publisher, we treat leading primarily as a paragraph attributes so as to get consistent spacing across the paragraph. This may be different to what you are used to. If you have been setting the Character panel's Leading Override, I'd suggest reverting it to Default.
