Line spacing Parameter for Text Nodes in Revit

Line spacing Parameter for Text Nodes in Revit

An additional Parameter to change line spacing for Text Nodes in Revit would be very helpful.

 

The current functionality of text properties gives the possibility to control the Width Factor however, there is no corresponding parameter for the line spaces.

The needed functionality would be additional parameter to control the spacing between lines, as in the image below:

Yes, and a line spacing parameter would be really useful in labels (of tags and title blocks) also, thanks!

I am experiencing the same issue with the inability to change the text line spacing in notes etc.

Please Autodesk fix this one.

 

PS while I'm here can you make Revit and AutoCAD one program?

2 years in and no progress on this basic text function.

 

Not having line spacing control is especially difficult when using a font with 2 languages, especially an Asian language. When I use Japanese characters the space between lines isn't slightly off it is nearly double which makes is impossible to allow putting Japanese characters into a label with multiple lines, for example a sheet title.

 

Please address this issue.

Yes, totally agree, getting line spacing to be editable would be very nice!

One way to "cheat" a line spacing into a text note:
set the text to superscript or subscript..see screenshot

You're gonna have to try harder than that to stop basic line spacing, autodesk!!

Am using Revit 2025. Inability to adjust text spacing is creating havoc in presentation, especially general notes. Hoping this is dealt with in Revit 2026.
