Default Why Does Spacing Sometimes Show as Points and Sometimes as Lines?

I would prefer points, but when I cut and paste a selection it shows up as lines instead of points. Any idea how to revert it back to points instead? Thanks.

I actually kind of figured it out. I just highlighted all the text in question. The two drop down lists went blank (since there were different values between the lines). When I pressed up or down on Before or After it reverted back to 0pt. Not sure if that is the official way to do it but it worked for me. If there is a more recognized way to do it please share.

You could paste in "Keep Text Only" format (the right-most option under Paste Options). That way, the pasted text assumes the properties defined at the location where you paste.
