Text on my sidebar widget is too small, no formatting

On both the free and premium versions of Vantage, the text on my sidebar widget is too small, and does not change in size when I customize it in the widget visual editor. I tried adding a new visual editor widget with new text, different sizes, no luck. I’ve also tried inserting some CSS code found from doing searches online, generally, again no luck.

Any thoughts?

    Hi Todd91712000

    Please add the following to your Custom CSS

    #secondary .widget {
        font-size: 14px;
    }
    

    You can change the size to fit your requirements.

    Let us know how you get on.

    Perfect.  Thank you for that.  One more thing, sorry.  I need spaces between the lines of text as well (on my side bar / widget).  Any code for that?  Thanks in advance!

    #secondary .widget {
        font-size: 14px;

    Hi Todd91712000

    Please change the previous code to this

    #secondary .widget {
        font-size: 14px;
        line-spacing: 1.5em;
    }
    

    You can change the spacing, but do it in .1 increments until you get the desired spacing.

    @Srikanth thanks for the input

    Thanks again, Magus, but when I added that to CSS, my theme gave me a warning and indicated:  "unknown property 'line-spacing'

    Hi Todd

    Apologies please change that to read ‘line-height’.
