can anyone help me?

I am trying to use the text feature in Windows 7 64bit using Inkscape 0.92.1 in the following manner:

I select the Text tool (F7) and start typing some text. As soon as I hit enter (for a newline of text) the newline jumps to 500px above the original text.

I went into the NEWLINE spacing feature (which is cool) and changed the value to 0. Also changed the measurement from pt to px, cm, mm and nothing worked.

What am I missing here guys?
