Adjust line height of body text in Dawn theme

Adjust line height of body text in Dawn theme

I'm trying to make the line height smaller. 

I tried going into the base.css and changing this, however as I change the numbers in this line nothing changes. All help is appreciated!

 

.text-body {
font-size: 1.5rem;
letter-spacing: 0.06rem;
line-height: calc(1 + 0.8 / var(--font-body-scale));
font-family: var(--font-body-family);
font-style: var(--font-body-style);
font-weight: var(--font-body-weight);
}

Doing this shrunk the size of all text on my website, but did not affect the line height specifically.

I tried changing the  1 value and the 0.8 value and no result, I also tried removing the equation and just putting "1;" which also did not work, is that what you meant or is there something else I can do?

Hi @SatoriVintage 

 

The Line-height value can be set as a unitlesse number like 1.2 rem, 12px or 120%. You can try test on your code and adjust it as you wish: 

 

.text-body {
font-size: 1.5rem;
letter-spacing: 0.06rem;
line-height: 12px !important/* Adjust this value as needed */ 
font-family: var(--font-body-family);
font-style: var(--font-body-style);
font-weight: var(--font-body-weight);
}

 

I hope it helps.

I was able to figure it out playing with some code, but I also wonder how to make the body text smaller if that is something you can help with. 

In the settings -> typography -> font size scale it is already at the smallest (50) and I have tried a bunch of code in the assets.css and other files to change the size of it but it never changes.

For example on these two pages:
