"Space After" facility seems not to work...

[KieranBrennanDublin]

Hi,

I've created a Style Sheet for my body copy - however the 'Space After' attribute does not seem to be applying.

Please see attached, the 3mm Space After appears in the interface but clearly hasn't applied.

I have imported text from MS Word, might this be holding some control?

Any help appreciated.

It looks like you have spacing for the same style set to zero.

Thanks for the reply, however I'm not sure what you mean... please see attached my style sheet selections?

You circled the problem. Change it to ignore.

Wowser, thank you!

Your second screenshot proved Bob correct. See the style sheet setting below Space After. To keep it from overriding your Space After setting, you'd have to change it from '0' to 'Ignore'.

Thank you too.

Hi @KieranBrennanDublin:

Change the Space Between Paragraphs Using Same Style back to Ignore. The 0mm value is kicking in because the two consecutive paragraphs have same paragraph style.
