--- Comment #2 from Ron <kdenlive-b...@contact.dot-oz.net> ---
I'm afraid this isn't actually possible. We're now using ASS format subtitles
by default,
which are the most featureful for custom styling, but they still have no direct
option to
configure line spacing (and we don't control that to add them).
If you really need that for some project, and need it using subtitles rather
than a title
clip, then you'll need to use one of the various tricks people have come up
with to
simulate it, and check that it works for all the players you need to support.
Depending on exactly what you're doing, I'd either be looking at using explicit
positioning
tags inline in the text, or possibly creating a separate style for each line
position that you
want text on and using margins and/or layers to position it exactly as you
want.
Searching for "ASS subtitle line spacing" should turn up some other options for
that,
all with various pros and cons.
But I'd still be cautious about relying on this, because it could all fall
apart on a player
using a font with different metrics to what you used for your explicit
positioning or
with a differently scaled screen size.
You should probably think of subtitles a bit like old-school HTML. Any styling
or positioning
you might do really is just a hint for the player rendering them. It is
totally free to ignore all
of that and display it any way it (or the user configuring it) chooses.
If you want "graphic artist" levels of control over exactly what is displayed,
then you probably
want to be using the title tool, not subtitles. Subtitles are mostly more
focussed on putting
control for if/how they are displayed into the hands of the viewer, not the
creator.
