I've found what I was looking for. There's a pair of settings for "strut" in |
| 8 |
the Qt settings panel: one each for minimum x and minimum y text size. All I |
| 9 |
had to do was to put a small, non-zero number in there and the vertical space |
| 10 |
occupied by a line of text became more reasonable. |

I could have found this earlier but I didn't recognise the term "strut". I |
| 13 |
knew about "leading" (a strip of lead that a printer would insert between rows |
| 14 |
of text to space them out); it seems this is similar in effect. |

That's today's new thing to learn. I hope it helps somebody. |
