Hello all,
The top part of my text is invisible.
I have manually changed the distance between lines.
I still would like to see my text.

Tell us which font(s) you are using [free font(s)? commercial font(s)?)].
There are some fonts for learners (school fonts) which include lines, as seen in your screenshot. The fonts often behave very special, sometimes the single characters have to be connected by macros…
You must be very careful when using fixed line spacing. If the distance is smaller than the intrinsic font height, characters get clipped.

Yes, line spacing is set to Fixed. Is there a workaround, or a way to ignore intrinsic font height in visualization?
Thank you for your time.
Is your aim that the single characters should exactly fit the lines? See professional font by Will Software (screenshot from website):

If you want to do that you better set the lines individually in their heights. Your sample file’s lines should be modified for better customizing. At the moment it is nearly impossible.

Hi @Grantler
My objective is to see the entire letter. They are being clipped at the top so I cannot see them.
That’s it.
Try to play with the spacing above paragraph and the line spacing.
Your problem is a non-proportional fixed line spacing compared to font size. Your settings are:
You reduce the line height much faster than what results from the font size.
Another flaw is the position reference of your line shapes. They have probably been positioned “by hand” (moved with the mouse) which causes various setting choices (not the best for your purpose): Entire paragraph area which includes spacing and indents. In your case, since you want to align very precisely with text, you should force Paragraph text area in order not to be bothered by spacing around paragraph text. This would allow you to eliminate the need to force line spacing (unless you want a larger one).
I assume that your line shapes were built in Draw. You can probably improve your “comfort” by pasting them into Writer as images so that you can control them with a frame style (one per size). The frame style can be reused, containing the relative position. This position can be tuned globally (in the style) with immediate effect on all similar occurrences.
