Subject: line-spacing and echo area
Date: Fri, 21 May 2010 13:36:35 -0400

(setq-default line-spacing 1.8)

Will cause the echo area (including minibuffers) to be unusable (the line is displayed too low).
I would expect either line-spacing to be ignored in the echo area, or, the echo area needs to be enlarged to accommodate the new line-spacing.

As soon as there is more than one line displayed in a minibuffer, the appearance is correct.

Works fine for me on GNU/Linux.

And for me on MS-Windows, both with stock Emacs 23.2 and with the
current trunk.

Perhaps a precise recipe, starting with "emacs -Q", is in order.

I can't reproduce this either with Emacs 26.2 or current master.

Can you still reproduce this on the latest version of Emacs?  If yes,
could you please provide a precise recipe for how to reproduce this,
starting with "emacs -Q"?

Unless I hear back from you in a couple of weeks, I will close this as
unreproducible.

Thanks,

One month has passed with no reply, so I'm now closing the bug.
If you're still seeing this, please report back so that we can
reopen it.
