The name of the RichTextEdit control in which you want to set the line spacing. |
spacing |
A value of the Spacing enumerated datatype specifying the line spacing for the text. Values are: Spacing1! -- Single spacing Spacing15! -- One and a half line spacing Spacing2! -- Double spacing |
Return value
Integer.
Returns 1 if it succeeds and -1 if an error occurs.
Usage
Because spacing is a setting for paragraphs, not individual lines, then if lines have wrapped, spacing will change for all the lines in all the paragraphs that are selected.
When you expand the line spacing, the extra space is added before the affected lines.
Examples
This example specifies double spacing for the selected paragraphs in the RichTextEdit rte_1:
rte_1.SetSpacing(Spacing2!)
This example specifies one and a half line spacing:
rte_1.SetSpacing(Spacing15!)
