Text problem new line - PaulCKruger - 07-30-2021

For some reason when I enter more than one line of text, pressing to add second line places that above the first instead of below as is should.

Any idea if this is a setting somewhere or a bug?

=== example ===

FIRST WORD (enter for new line ) SECOND WORD

This is what I get:

SECOND WORD
FIRST WORD

Should be:

FIRST WORD
SECOND WORD

If you look in the "Tool Options" for the text box you may find that the field with the up and down arrows just below the "Justify" field contains a negative value - set this to 0.0 and the lines should then appear in the intended order.

Yes, check the line spacing

Line01
over
Line02

A positive line spacing will increase the distance between lines.
A negative spacing will decrease the distance until Line02 is above Line01.
