RadrichTextBox line spacing

[vikas]

Hi,
I am using the below code for RadRichTextBox. The linespacine between lines of text is 1. I want the line spacing to be 0. Can you please have a look and advise.

 <telerik:RadRichTextBox HorizontalAlignment="Left" LayoutMode="Flow" AcceptsTab="False" IsSpellCheckingEnabled="False" IsContextMenuEnabled="False" IsSelectionMiniToolBarEnabled="False"
                                    DocumentInheritsDefaultStyleSettings="True"  GotFocus="TxtLeftHeaderBox_OnGotFocus" Visibility="{Binding HeaderVisibility}" Width="175" Height="125" Margin="5">
                <telerik:RadRichTextBox.Document>
                    <telerik:RadDocument LineSpacing="0" LineSpacingType="Auto" >
                        <telerik:Section>
                            <telerik:Paragraph FontSize="10" LineSpacing="0" LineSpacingType="Auto" >
                                <telerik:Span FontFamily="Arial" Text=" "  FontSize="10" />
                            </telerik:Paragraph>
                        </telerik:Section>
                    </telerik:RadDocument>
                </telerik:RadRichTextBox.Document>
            </telerik:RadRichTextBox>

Hello vikas,

If you want to set the line spacing property of a paragraph to 0 you can set the LineSpacingType to Exact and the LineSpacing to 0. However, please note that line spacing value 1 is the equivalent of no spacing between lines, whereas 0 (or any value smaller than 1 actually) would force the lines in the paragraph to overlap one another.

I hope this is useful.

I've searched all the posts related to the RadRichTextBox line spacing but I still don't understand how to change it.

I simply want to the user input to be like this:

Line1
Line2
Line3

Instead of the default of:

Line1

Line2

Line3

For a regular RichTextBox this works and there is no double spacing in the RichTextBox:

<<RichTextBox Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="2" x:Name="RadRichTextBoxLabwareSoap" HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" Margin="0,10,0,10" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" Background="#FF2C2C2C" Foreground="#FFBFBFBF">
    <RichTextBox.Resources>
        <Style TargetType="{x:Type Paragraph}">
            <Setter Property="Margin" Value="0"/>
        </Style>
    </RichTextBox.Resources>
</RichTextBox>

What is the equivalent of this for a RadRichTextBox?

Hello Jeffrey,

The line spacing of the paragraphs inside a document is determined by the style applied to the content. You can obtain the Normal style through the StyleRepository property of RadDocument as demonstrated in Example 8 of the Styles help topic.

Hope this is helpful.

This does nothing for the default style of my radRichTextbox. Spacing after is still set to 9 with line spacing still being multiple set to 1.15.

StyleDefinition normalStyle = radRichTextBox1.Document.StyleRepository[RadDocumentDefaultStyles.NormalStyleName];

 normalStyle.ParagraphProperties.AutomaticSpacingAfter = false;
 normalStyle.ParagraphProperties.SpacingAfter = 0;

Hi Patrick,

This can be related to the specific document and the styles in it. I would recommend submitting a new ticket and attaching the document there. This will allow us to properly investigate why this is not working in your case. 

Thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation.
