leading or line height

Hi & good day,

In Mellel I cannot find where to adjust the leading or line height of my document. There is "Attributes, Styles" for my font but nothing more? Is this not possible - as it seemed from the other threads on this subject?

with best regards,

Line height (or leading) is a paragraph setting. So, you can either manually change the "Line spacing" in the paragraph attributes palette, or—the preferred way—modify the paragraph style you are using to the desired amount.

The units are either lines or points.

OK I can change the leading manually,

but c/f paragraph style,
is this in Styles > Paragraph Styles > Body?

It doesn't do much to the leading though.

This will have to be set in all of the style(s) that you use. You can get easier access to the different styles by hitting command-shift-A on the keyboard or selecting Styles > Edit style sets…
