Line height in q tag

Created on 30 June 2024, 6 months ago
Updated 22 July 2024, 5 months ago

I use the q tag a lot for annotations, captions, etc.
The line spacing is excessive and I wanted to reduce it.
For example, at the bottom of the page:
https://prova.gmpe.it/astronomia/nebulose

I tried:

#page-wrapper .sidebar-box-main q {
 line-height: 24px !important;
}

but it does not work.

Is it possible to solve it?

Thanks and best regards

    Hi @giordy, the line-height css propety is working fine but due to the use of <br> tag after every <q> tag is preventing the appearance of line-height as the <br> tag is also taking 17px height for itself. So, you can remove the <br> tag after every <q> tag and set the <q> tag to display: block to render all the <q> tag in a new line and then you can set the line-height as per your requirement. And it is usually bad practice to use !important in css.. You can set line-height without using the !important.

    #page-wrapper .sidebar-box-main q {
        line-height: 22px;
        display: block;
    }
    
    <p class="text-align-center"><q><strong>Nebulosa oscura Testa di Cavallo B33&nbsp;</strong></q><q><strong>La nebulosa planetaria NGC 6720&nbsp;</strong></q><q><strong>Nebulosa a emissione Trifida NGC 6514&nbsp;</strong></q><q><strong>Nebulosa a riflessione NGC 1999&nbsp;</strong></q><q><strong>Nebulosa da supernova del Granchio NGC 1952&nbsp;</strong></q></p>

    Thanks for the quick reply. If I delete br, the text doesn't wrap.

    Hi @giordy,
    I have also checked it. The line-height property is working fine. If the text is not wrapping after removing the < br > tag, you can use the text-wrap: wrap property. Doing this should solve your problem.

    I see as in fig. 1

    The q tag is not deleted and display block wraps the text (fig. 2).

    @giordy, please use this HTML code if you want to display elements as mentioned in the attached screenshot.

    <p class="text-align-center">
      <q><strong>Nebulosa oscura Testa di Cavallo B33</strong></q>
      <q><strong>La nebulosa planetaria NGC 6720</strong></q>
      <q><strong>Nebulosa a emissione Trifida NGC 6514</strong></q>
      <q><strong>Nebulosa a riflessione NGC 1999</strong></q>
      <q><strong>Nebulosa da supernova del Granchio NGC 1952</strong></q>
    </p>
    

    To display all the <q> content in a new line you will have to use multiple <q> tags. I've gone through the current HTML in the page https://prova.gmpe.it/astronomia/nebulose

    <p class="text-align-center">
      <q>
        <strong>Nebulosa oscura Testa di Cavallo
          B33</strong>
        <strong>La nebulosa planetaria NGC 6720Nebulosa a emissione
          Trifida NGC 6514Nebulosa a riflessione NGC 1999Nebulosa da supernova del
          Granchio NGC 1952</strong>
      </q>
    </p>

    Here you've used only a single <q> tag that's why content is rendering on the same line line.

    Thank you. It works for this page, but I can't use display:block because it's not good for all other pages.
    Ckeditor 5 introduces q whenever it encounters any other tag and not just br.

    If I have this with cke4:

    <p>
    <q>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetuer id velit dui <strong>Quisque </strong>at.<br />
    Phasellus <strong>fames </strong>massa Duis urna gravida Nam elit pellentesque tempor <em>pretium</em>.<br />
    Consequat id <u>Curabitur </u>sem sem Phasellus et Nulla.</q>
    </p>

    With cke5 it becomes:

    <p>
        <q>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetuer id velit dui <strong>Quisque </strong>at.</q><br>
        <q>Phasellus <strong>fames </strong>massa Duis urna gravida Nam elit pellentesque tempor </q><em><q>pretium</q></em><q>.</q><br>
        <q>Consequat id <u>Curabitur </u>sem sem Phasellus et Nulla.</q>
    </p>

    The result is in fig. 3

    Thanks and best regards

    Hello,

    It works for this page, but I can't use display:block because it's not good for all other pages.

    You should be able to inspect the page and apply CSS to a specific page. By default, Drupal adds a class name to the body tag that includes the content type and the node ID.
    Ex: https://prova.gmpe.it/astronomia/nebulose

    .path-node-1683 #page-wrapper .sidebar-box-main q {
        line-height: 22px;
        display: block;
    }

    Best wishes,
    Alaa

    Thanks, it could be a solution if I didn't have at least fifty pages with different characteristics.

    The real solution should come from ckeditor 5. I tried to write, but I didn't get any response:
    https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3458454 🐛 Problem with the q tag Active
    At this point I'd better leave it like this.

    Thank you so much and best regards
