Looking at Qt forum (26th of May 2023), I found this comment related to line-height:

Quote:
The natural vertical spacing of text automatically wrapped or with deliberate line breaks is given by QFontMetrics::lineSpacing(). This figure is a function of font and size and is not adjustable out-of-the box.

You can subclass QLabel and provide your own rendering.
As this automatic line-height is, in a way, a clear loss of functionality for the user, I wondered if the Calibre editor could provide this mysterious (for me) "subclass".
