Title: Table Rows Too High Last modified: November 7, 2016 --- # Table Rows Too High * Resolved [eubie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eubie/) * (@eubie) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/table-rows-too-high/) * Hello Tobias, * first off, thank you much for this awesome plugin. * I have managed to either fiddle around long enough or find answers to all of my questions except for this one. I have a table with two rows where the first row is huge text, the second row is small text. * The problem is that my first row is too high – I would like to get rid of the empty space above and below the text so that both rows’texts sit close together. I have set padding and margin to 1px, to no effect. * Below is my complete CSS related to this table. On [this page](https://www.dropbox.com/s/19tffbp19hii6lb/table.png?dl=0) I have made a screen of the table with text being selected so that you can see the empty space below and above the first row’s text. * Could you please push me in the right direction? * Many thanks and regards to Germany, Daniel * ``` /* Column Settings */ .tablepress-id-4 tbody td { border-bottom : none !important; border-top : none !important; } .tablepress-id-4 .column-1 { text-align: center; border-right : 1px solid #D3D3D3; } .tablepress-id-4 .column-2 { text-align: center; border-right : 1px solid #D3D3D3; } .tablepress-id-4 .column-3 { text-align: center; border-right : 1px solid #D3D3D3; } .tablepress-id-4 .column-4 { text-align: center; border-right : 1px solid #D3D3D3; } .tablepress-id-4 .column-5 { text-align: center; border-right : 1px solid #D3D3D3; } .tablepress-id-4 .column-6 { text-align: center; } /* Row Settings */ .tablepress-id-4 .row-1 { background-color: #FFFFFF; font-size: 40px font-weight: normal; } .tablepress-id-4 .row-1 tr { line-height: normal; } .tablepress-id-4 .row-1 td { padding-top : 1px !important; padding-bottom : 1px !important; margin-top : 1px !important; margin-bottom : 1px !important; height : 20px !important; } .tablepress-id-4 .row-2 { background-color: #FFFFFF; font-weight: normal; font-size: 15px } .tablepress-id-4 .row-2 td { padding-top : 1px !important; padding-bottom : 1px !important; } ``` - This topic was modified 9 years, 7 months ago by [eubie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eubie/).
