Calibre - changing the line-height in the user interface book description

CynthiaBlue · 02-04-2016, 07:08 PM

I would like to change the line-height style in my Calibre User Interface book description. The Calibre preferences allow me to change the font and font size, for the user interface but it doesn't allow me to change the line-height. Is there a way of accessing the Calibre Style sheet, meaning the one that controls the User Interface?

Make a copy and place it in the same relative path in the configuration folder

Code:

C:\Program Files\Calibre2\resources\templates\book_details.css

Edit that one. Updates will not stomp on that (but you might ned to do something if the UI does change)
