Text Options soup

[salaam]

Dear Xara,
Could you make the [Text options] window more informative and less confusing.
The image should read 'abc', 'def' on 2 lines. It can usually become a nightmare attempting to decipher which character to select.

Thanks
Anas

Anas have you change your default line spacing?

I was referring to the problem of needing objects to be on the same line.
When viewing them in 3D, it is not a problem (especially when animated) but in [Text Options] everything is black.

?? Then this is very confusing to me Anas, because your OP stated:

Looking at your attachment, it can be seen that you have line spacing set to '0%' which is what I think Bill was trying to point out.

I think Anas is talking about the case when "abc" line is exactly IN FRONT of the "cde" line.

Thanks John.
The [text options] window is not very helpful when you have shapes on top of shapes (or 2 lines on the same line, sorry for the confusion lads). It is also difficult knowing what you have selected.

Sorry, I thought the conversation was about Xara Xtreme.
