text has large field below

[Cadplan Architecture]

My text has started entering weirdly. When I type the vertical cursor is a lot larger that the selected text. The text appears at the correct size but the field below is large and I can't see any way of reducing it. Oddly even dimension text is suffering the same way. It's probably something stupid that I've done but I can't see what.

Any ideas??

One thing to look at is the line spacing. If it is set to double, there will be a big space under every line.

1st enter some text, then, while the text block is selected, look near the bottom of the OIP and try the options in the Spacing pull down (Single, 1 1/2, Double, custom)

If that's the problem, reset the Text format: Click on empty area of the drawing to deselect everything, then Menu>Text>Spacing>choose Single or Set Spacing to custom amount of your choice.

To change existing text, use the Select Similar to select them all, then change them all at once with the Spacing options in OIP or in Menu>Text.

no it's not that, I tried before posting, in any case it affects dimensions as well and you can't adjust the spacing for theses. It's odd as if I use the eye dropper tool to copy the attributes from another dimension, the spacing all jumps back to normal. Maybe it's some type of bug
