Line spacing adjustment

The style I’m currently using (Nature) makes the references double spaced every time I Format Citations. It would be great if this behavior could be changed such that spacing is not affected by formatting citations (like the font) or by facilitating line spacing adjustment in the style.

Thanks for the request, @petervangalen, and for locating its related threads. I have started a topic with your feedback on our internal tracker and included previous input from the other threads for the team to consider.

As mentioned in those other threads, styles which have predetermined line spacing can be customized using CSL’s online editing tool and uploaded to Paperpile as custom styles if preferred.

Thanks, all; this was helpful!

I am back to having this issue with my most current editing project. I’m okay with changing it after formatting the bibliography, but it sure would be nice if I could build that in so I don’t have to fix it after re-formatting. I’m using the Ecology style and I want 1.15 spacing with a paragraph after each reference, but it comes in with double spacing. I have tried editing the style, but I can’t see how to do it in the editor (I’ve looked in the Layout section). Any advice would be appreciated!

I think I have found the location in the editor to change the line spacing– way down under Global Formatting Options. It doesn’t look like I’ll be able to do everything I want, but I see that I can change “line-spacing” from 2 to 1. It’s a start, I guess!
