The new version of Gmail has been released with many new features and display options including – Line Spacing.
The first thing you will notice when you invoke the new Gmail is that line spacing between things like email items, mailbox categories, etc. has gotten a lot wider. This line spacing setting in Gmail is called Display Density and is very easy to adjust / personalize.
There are three settings for Display Density:
- Comfortable – (default) this is the widest setting, great for large displays
- Cozy – this is the medium line-space setting, Goldilocks’ favorite
- Compact – this is the tightest setting as the name implies, similar to the old Gmail default display density
This screenshot illustrates the location of the settings tab for adjusting Gmail line spacing.
Enjoy the control.

THANK YOU! That was driving me crazy… I don’t know why I didn’t find that on my own. Much better now.
I was trying to do single-line spacing on a document. But When I select it to the comfort setting the document starts in double-line spacing then goes into single space. (I cannot get single spacing for the full document)
I have a question. How do I download the new Gmail version? (I find several websites that say they have it, but they’re not from Google…)
Thanks!

Elizabeth,
Thanks for the question. Gmail is not a download product. Gmail is a free, advertising-supported email service provided by Google. Users sign up and access Gmail as secure webmail client at http://gmail.com. I hope this information is helpful.
