[scribus] points below

Still possible.  
Make certain that you are only highlighting the text to which the expanded lines should be applied within that paragraph.

Of course, I see only three lines on the text example that you mentioned,
Here is (hopefully) a visual example of my reply:  http://beadcircus.com/Scribus-text-spacing.png

 Yes I do all that, but the trouble is
 it changes the spacing in the whole paragraph. I quite often
 want to make a bigger space between paragraphs than within
 the paragraph. Here's an example:
 
 
 Selection of three main dishes in a relaxing atmosphere.
 €17.50 for starter and main course, or drocp in 
 for a choice of excellent French wines, cheeseboard or meat
 platter.
 
 Here I wanted the space between lines one and two to be
 greater than between lines three and four. If I put the
 cursor in line two and change the fixed line spacing, it
 also changes it between lines three and four. 
 
 Does that make sense? If I could do '3 points after' that
 would solve that problem. I do that using a style, but
 that's a nuisance having to set up a style.
