Hi there,

Thanks for flagging. I will check this behavior with our internal team and will get back to you once I have any updates.

Thanks,

Hi there,

Our engineering team confirmed it was a bug, and they fixed it. Once you reload the tab, it should be fixed. I confirmed it on my end, but if you keep seeing the issue, please feel free to let us know. Thanks again for flagging!

Im having the same problem, the paragraph spacing simply does not compute

Yeah i had the same problem except what you have to space should actually have a paragraph in it. so you should use ‘Enter’ for a next line then try the feature again… 😉

Oh! Thank you for your tips!!

I have the same issue, I came here to find a solution, but turns out its a bug?

got the same problem, seems bugged still

Hi @Aditi_Sharma1 @Bas_Schellekens ,

Thanks for reaching out. Could you share the screenshots or screen recording so we can understand the issue correctly? Also, your working environment such as OS, browser etc would be helpful!

I tested it on my end and it looks working properly at the moment.

Thanks!

Hi, I’m having the same problem (I’m on the latest version of Figma). I have noticed that it doesn’t work if there are multiple paragraph styles in the same text box.

See this video: https://vimeo.com/966629322/5beebad5e0?share=copy

I’m on Mac OS if that helps.

Hi there,

Thanks for sharing the details! It could be a bug. Could you submit a bug report detailing the steps that led to this issue? You can do so by following the link:

Thanks again!

Done, thanks!

Same problem here. Changes to text styles don’t apply when there are multiple text styles in the same text box.

Bump. same issue here. Must be a new bug, cause I know I have had different styles in one box before.

Hi everyone, we appreciate your patience! Our engineers have looked into this further and determined that this behavior is due to a feature limitation. Figma uses the style on the first character in the text box to set the paragraph spacing for the entire text box. We have submitted a feature request to bring this to the attention of our product teams.

Thank you once again for bringing this up and for your patience!

I have the same issue. I found out that this issue only occurs if you copy paste text. If you type the text manually into the text field the paragraph spacing is working.

A little bit ridiculous 🫣

Hi,
When i have multiple styles in one textbox, the values of the first Style will override the others, so if a H2 is in at the start, that maybe has 0 paragraph spacing set, it will override following styles. Changing the paragraph spacing setup for the headline changed the styles for following paragraphs as well. its a hack, but for me it worked.
