title: Flutter how do I remove unwanted padding from Text widget?
body: <p>I have a <code>Text</code> widget and not sure why it seems to just have padding at the top and bottom even though I didn't set any in the code. This is from the default Flutter app, I just modified the font size.</p>
  
  <pre><code>  body: Center(
      child: Column(
        children: &lt;Widget&gt;[
          Text(
            '0:00.00',
            style: TextStyle(fontSize: 76),
          ),
        ],
      ),
    ),
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is a screenshot of the highlighted <code>Text</code> widget in Android Studio. There's really nothing else adding any padding so I don't know why it's there.</p>

  <p>Sometimes you get this in CSS where there is padding even though none was set but you can remove it simply with <code>padding: 0</code> but I don't see how to do it here since I can't find a padding option for the <code>Text</code> widget.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: The amount of padding changes with the size of the font. It seems to always contain a certain amount of padding, like a html <code>H1</code> tag.</p>
