How can change font-size and line-height in normal paragraphs (p) I have tried to add to childtheme css:

p{font-size:18px;line-height:1.2}, but no affect...

You can change the font size in "Customize > Typography".

For the line height, what you have above should work:

p {
    line-height: 17px;
}

Adjust as necessary.

The Line Height variable might be a good option to add under “Customize > Typography” in a future update to the GP Premium package. This way users can adjust there instead of the CSS file. :)

I agree :)

I also agree :) line-height is the second most used setting in typography and graphic design, generally speaking. It should be more accesible = in the Typography interface, and most definitely not available only through custom CSS. Please help! :)

GP Premium 1.2.90 made it possible to add line-height in an upcoming version.

It's coming soon :)

That's great news Tom. Much appreciated!

Thanks! :)

I found smth which may be IMHO the ideal example of Typography settings: https://typeanything.io/

With one more very useful feature: live update when hovering over a font name in a dropdown.

Very cool, not sure something like that would work in the Customizer, but worth looking into :)

I predict that if you make this, youl'll suddendly have a boost in sales :) , since this is the correct approach from a designer's point of view - most other implementations in wp/front-end/page builders omit many settings which:
- are quite esential for a very good styling (for example - letter-spacing)
- are already available as specs - nothing fancy to re-invent, just implement

Really appreciate the ideas :)
