[softwarelist] Re: Line spacing

Thanks for this. It is a thing that has bugged me for a while but never enought to make me complain about it. Being "a bear of very little brain" I never thought to look at the invisibles. Is the odd character a fixed font size? The problem seems
to get worse the smaller you go.

I have a table which the 2 bottom lines are spaced further apart than
the others if I click enter on the end of the bottom line to create a
new line the previous 2 lines close up.
What have I done wrong again??

I used to get frustrated by this all the time and it happens with normal text too, not just tables. I eventually realised that there was an invisible character in a larger font on the same line, causing it to be lower than it visually should be. Pressing return moves it off the current line onto the next line down so the previously too low line is then adjusted back up to where it seemed like it should be. The answer is to delete the invisible character, ideally using the keypad delete to delete to the right of the caret.
