Both font size and line height are smaller for comments and list items. Are you saying you prefer more line height (without font size change)? Or do you generally prefer both line height and font size in lists/comments to be identical to body text? Or perhaps something half way in between, with line height just nudged up a little but not as much as body text?
I really appreciate the feedback - thanks.
- Terretta 15y agoPersonally, I'd prefer the line height to be the same for all the mentioned items for a consistent vertical rhythm. In any case, I know the line height was small enough that I noticed list items and comments felt cramped even before I saw you'd asked for feedback. In this example, regardless of font size or face, the vertical rhythm follows the same beat: http://www.alistapart.com/d/settingtypeontheweb/example.html http://www.alistapart.com/d/settingtypeontheweb/example.html Another example (using third step headings for section spacing) showing smaller font on the same baseline grid: http://www.thesheep.co.uk/examples/vertical-rhythm/ http://www.thesheep.co.uk/examples/vertical-rhythm/ A calculator to help make the CSS: http://topfunky.com/baseline-rhythm-calculator/ http://topfunky.com/baseline-rhythm-calculator/
