[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Underscore not displayed on 20.04 (#2466)

[Ben Caradoc-Davies]

Thanks @codebrainz, I have updated my comment above with my geany, gtk, and glib details for the record, but I just got the `line_height` workaround to work with excellent results.

For the benefit of other users, the `line_height` setting can be found in "Tools" > "Configuration Files" > "filetypes.common". To change this setting from its default `line_height=0;0;` there are two things to note:

* "#~" lines are commented and have no effect.
* The file format is an [INI file](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INI_file) so uncommenting the `line_height` line is insufficient because the `[styling]` section is also required; either uncomment this line or add a new `[styling]` section at the end.

The only uncommented lines in my `filetypes.common` are now:

```
[styling]
line_height=0;2;
```

With this setting and DejaVu Sans Mono Book size 12, underscores are visible. Using "line_height=0;1;" also works, but "line_height=0;2;" gives me, for the first time ever, exact agreement (as far as I can tell) with the line height in xfce4-terminal.
