    I am working on a newsletter. I wanted a little space after the title of the article. I highlighted that title, went to Paragraphs, and entered a value in Space After. It added that value after EVERY paragraph on the page, even entirely different, not linked text boxes. I believe I hit some combination of keys accidentally (repeatedly) to create this problem, maybe creating some type of link?? Whatever I hit made all my tool panels disappear. I got them back. Jane!

    Did you create a para style for the title? If you did, and then based the other para styles on the first one, all is adapted with the first para style as “master”. If I get it right, it seems as if all the text is set up with one para style.

      No, I didn’t create any paragraph styles. Did I mention it is not only this document, but any new document I try is affected by this spacing after every paragraph when I try to apply spacing after just line.

    First: Open Indesign, but do not open any document. Edit the “basic” para style (the only one available) and look for the spacing before or after. Be sure this is set to zero. Save the style. When you open a new doc, the para style should be oke again.
    Second: If you didn’t create styles, all text is put in the same “basic” para style, so in your case with a “space after”.
    When you want only the title to be followed by a space, create a new style, make the space after you want, save the style and apply it to all the titles you want. All the other text will stay in the “basic” style.
