Line and paragraph spacing in Rise
Hello, we are using Rise 360 to develop an eRead and having a difficult time adjusting the spacing on each page. I'd like to adjust the spacing withing paragraphs and between paragraphs. Please see attached. This program is over 100 pages long and it becomes a challenge to read this way.
Thanks in advance for your assistance with this!

As a late starter to using Rise 360, I have found this to a big bug in the app. Cut and paste from my documents is resulting in mixed line spacing in the Rise. The app allows for so many other adjustments, Font, colour etc, why not paragraphing to some extent? It's the small things that annoy and influence some!

Without knowing what block types were used to create your example it is difficult to make useful comments.
In general, Rise does not offer any control over line spacing, e.g. 1, 1.5, or 2.
You can have control of spacing between blocks by adjusting the padding above and below the block.
Within a text block, you can use ENTER to create a new paragraph or SHIFT+ENTER. The latter will create less space between paragraphs.

The problem with the shift+enter approach is that it will be part of the same paragraph (programming-wise), and thus have the same formatting as the previous line.
To control spacing between paragraps with different formatting or orientation, you can use multiple text blocks.
Another option is to do as Angelo suggests, and hack it. The best way to do this is probably to open main.bundle.css in your exported product, and edit the
.block-text
class padding attribute to a size you want."Simply" open the file in a text-editor, search for ".block-text" and edit
.block-text{padding:3rem 0;transition:padding .5s;font-size:1.7rem}
to, eg.block-text{padding:1.5rem 0;transition:padding .5s;font-size:1.7rem}

THANK YOU - Shift+Enter is just what I was asking - Thank you! Its the simple things

Seems like we have to find *ALOT* of workarounds for very simple functionality in Rise. The inability to adjust line spacing is another example.
Is this on the roadmap for implementation soon?

Plus 1! The line spacing is way too much for some blocks!
