Here is what I’m doing:


Use the type tool and enter some text

Select text and size it

Set paragraph spacing


I expect that changing paragraph spacing would change the paragraph spacing but it does nothing. I changed fonts but just got the same result. Scratching my head.

You definitely have multiple paragraphs/hard returns? And you’re not adjusting line height instead?



AS you can see Paragraph spacing is 0 but there is a tone of space in between lines. I can increase the space but cannot make it smaller than this for any font.


Restarted and it works now.


Thanks!


In that screenshot, you had your line height at 35.


Hi, i am facing the same issue even after restarting Figma, please help!!


Same problem here


Hi there! Can you try to clear out your cache if it only happens on desktop app?

Does your paragraph spacing breaks if you mix text styles in a single text block? If so, please check this thread where others encounter similar issues: Paragraph spacing settings break when mixing styles in single text block - #11 by ScoJo


If this doesn’t help, I’d recommend you to share a quick video recording and a copy of your file so the team try to replicate and investigate further: here.

Be sure to use your Figma account email, include a link to the file, and share it with support-share@figma.com as an Editor, so we can take a closer look.
