How do I change the LINE SPACING in theTARGET SEGMENTS? Whenever I receive a package with HTML or EXCEL files from a particular client, the source segments are single spaced but the target segments default to double spaced. Thank you.

looks like you have lots of ghosts there
line spacing ? .. could be.. but..
This is very weird, but I went to the VIEW ribbon -> open the Font view to the right, and changed the "Bislama"?? and also noticed that the source language was set at DE, target as EN, and reversed those. Then, Studio froze up and I had to force restart. When I reopened Studio and my files-- The line spacing was normal!!!
Now, it trying to explain this, I went back to the Font view on the VIEW ribbon and Studio has frozen- again. So I think there might be a problem here.
I spent a lot of time with all this, so I better get to work. Thank you everyone for your input.
half solved old prolbem, half emerged new problem,,, always problem..
Bye..
From the looks of it you are dealing with an .xlf file, so whitespace handling will be controlled from that specific file type.
To be more specific, please go to "File \ Options \ File Types \ XLIFF \ Whitespace" and enable the "Always normalize option". You will need to re-open the source document in order for the new setting to "kick-in"; modifying the option will not affect existing .sdlxliff files.

Bislama is a creole language. But changing that default setting to EN US and checking the other language settings seems to have done the trick.
Thanks Vlad. I am keeping this info in case the problem comes up again. Right now, it seems to have disappeared. And you're right - it only happned with xliff files from Excel/Html.
Drag the verticle line to the left of the Target frame. This will shrink the Source frame and thus increase the number of lines to which each Source segment extends. Consequently, text in the Target frame will become less dense -> quasi line spacing increased.
