That's right when the text is taller. Text that is shorter is another case. > That > would mean putting the newlines into the ordinary font even though the > text around them is in a smaller font. That would work provided the > fill commands know how to keep the newlines in the ordinary font. > We could accomplish this by setting the line-height property to the pixel height of a specific face *) The effect of this would be that newlines would have the height of that face, rather than the current font. That seems like an approach that could work. BTW, the line-height and line-spacing properties are currently only supported as text-properties; should this be extended to check for overlays too? I don't see a use for them as overlays.
