Spacing before and after a paragraph is controlled by the paragraph properties. These are defined in the paragraph style you currently use.
To change spacing for a single paragraph, select Format – Paragraph and change the Spacing on the “Indents & Spacing” tab.
If you want to change the default spacing of paragraphs, edit the style that is applied to the paragraph.
- Open “Styles” in the pane to the right.
- Make sure the icon “Paragraph style” is selected
- The style in which your paragraph is formatted, will be highlighted. Eventually, you may need to change the display to “All styles” on the bottom of the pane.
- Right-click the style, and make the change on the “Indents & Spacing” tab.
Sometimes, extra space may exist under a paragraph because an extra empty paragraph was inserted. This is controlled by the user. To automatically remove empty paragraphs, open the “Find and Replace” dialog. Expand “Other options” and check “regular expressions”. In “Find”, enter ^$, leave the replace box empty. Click “Replace All” to automatically remove empty paragraphs.
Thanks for the tips. I am trying to convince the software to cooperate with these solutions! Always a difficult path… Trying to evade the necessity of using the shift+ enter line break, which produces its own problems of justification of text, etc.
