How to set height of <Linebreak />

Question

Does anybody know how to set up height of <LineBreak /> inside <TextBlock />? I tried to change font size of TextBlock but it's didn't help me.

UPDATE

I need to decrease it, not increase.

The only way One of the possibility's that I can see are to use FlowDocumentScrollViewer as the Content of your TextBlock. It will allow you to use a FlowDocument which has a Paragraph object which has FontSize and LineHeight Property's. This will give you the ability to change the Height of the LineBreak to a certain extent, this may not be as small as you want.

<Grid>
   <TextBlock LineHeight="1" Height="85" Width="400" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="12,29,0,0" Name="textBlock1" VerticalAlignment="Top" Background="Beige" >
        <FlowDocumentScrollViewer Width="400" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Hidden" >
            <FlowDocument>
                <Paragraph LineHeight="1" FontSize="12" FontFamily="Arial" Foreground="Red" >
                    <Run> This is a Test of line height</Run>
                 </Paragraph>
                <Paragraph LineHeight="1" FontSize="1"  BorderThickness=" 1" BorderBrush="Black">
                    <LineBreak/>
                </Paragraph >
                <Paragraph LineHeight="1" FontSize="12" FontFamily="Arial" Foreground="Blue">
                    <Run> This is a Test of line height</Run>
                </Paragraph> 
                <Paragraph LineHeight="1" FontSize="2"  BorderThickness=" 1" BorderBrush="Black">
                    <LineBreak />
                </Paragraph>
                <Paragraph   LineHeight="1" FontSize="12" FontFamily="Arial" Foreground="Green" >  
                    <Run> This is a Test of line height</Run>
                </Paragraph>
                <Paragraph LineHeight="1" FontSize="5"  BorderThickness=" 1" BorderBrush="Black">
                    <LineBreak />
                </Paragraph>
            </FlowDocument>
        </FlowDocumentScrollViewer>
    </TextBlock>
</Grid>

This gave me a result like this.

To add some additional information. I beleive most of the gap that you see between lines has to do with the LineHeight of the Text Lines. I played around with it a litte bit more and came up with this. It also has the added benefit of not needing a flow document.

<TextBlock LineHeight="9.75" LineStackingStrategy="BlockLineHeight" Margin="12,188,-12,-188">
    <Run> This is a Test of Line Height</Run>
    <LineBreak />
    <Run >This is a Test of Line Height</Run>
    <LineBreak />
    <Run>This is a Test of Line Height</Run>
    <LineBreak />
    <Run> This is a Test of Line Height</Run>
</TextBlock>

This gave me a result that looks like this. It will allow you to go smaller than you could otherwise

Answer 2

I had the same problem, easiest workaround for me was to use a TextBlock for each line, give the TextBlock a bottom margin setting and contain them in a StackPanel.

<StackPanel>
    <TextBlock Margin="0,0,0,10">
        This is the text and this text is quite long so it wraps over the end of the line...
    </TextBlock>
    <TextBlock Margin="0,0,0,10">
        This is the text and this text is quite long so it wraps over the end of the line...
    </TextBlock>
</StackPanel>

You can clean it up by putting the margin style in a shared resource.

Quick and dirty but it worked for my purposes.
