"Single" space sidenotes

Hi halfon,

This can be done using CSS. The current line-height property of your sidenotes is set to 1.846153846 in line 630 of your theme stylesheet (link).

Adding the following CSS rule to your site should do the trick (change the value of line-height as needed):

ol.side-matter > li.side-matter > div.side-matter-text {
    line-height: 1.2;
}

You could append this rule to the stylesheet directly, but I suggest instead adding it with a custom CSS plugin (like the one included in Jetpack) so your additions are preserved even if the theme is updated.

Still no luck. This was similar to what I tried previously. Code is currently in Custom CSS. But I am not seeing a difference (even if I set line height to 3).

Not sure what I’m missing.

OK, looks like Twenty Twelve’s default CSS is interfering more than I thought. Try this version instead:

.widget-area .widget .side-matter p, .widget-area .widget li.side-matter {
    line-height: 1.2;
}
