Feature: Set padding between lines in multi-line paragraph

[saifalmutory]

When wrapping text, does not create a new paragraph and this is normal,
But we need to set the padding between the lines in one paragraph
Here the padding is set between paragraphs:

.styled-text-area .paragraph-box .paragraph-text { -fx-padding: 10px 0px 0px 0px; }

What should I do?

It sounds like you want to be able to set the padding in-between lines in a multi-line paragraph when the text is being wrapped during runtime. Such a feature is not supported at this time.

I think this could be supported (though I'm not sure of all the drawbacks) but would require another generic type in GenericStyledArea for the paragraph type (similar to how we use SEG for a custom segment type).

Such an API might also be easier to implement if TextFlow exposed such a thing.

"during runtime"!! Does this mean that padding can be set before run-time?

If not please tell me what should I do? This feature is required

Nope, not even at compile time.

Only one thing and that may take a lot of time. Contribute to OpenJFX and change the TextFlow API to add another CSS property that adds space between rendered lines of wrapped text that does not contain by a newline character.

Hey my friend

.paragraph-text { -fx-line-spacing:30;}
This thing is already working, why do you say the opposite in wiki?
Update

[saifalmutory]

This works on the spacing of the lines in one paragraph and not several paragraphs and This is what we want. correct?

[JordanMartinez]

Wow.... You're right. I wrote that part of the wiki and tested it out, so perhaps I thought it referred to space between multiple paragraphs, not the lines between multi-line paragraphs...? I really don't know how that happened....

Regardless, the wiki has been updated. Thanks for the correction!

This isn't a feature as much as realizing that the ability for this already existed. However, so that this will show up in the list of new "Features" when a new release is made, I'm labeling this as a enhancement and renaming it to account for that.
