@Godber Try _SELECTING_ the text and see if there are any changes in the controls that appear after you have _SELECTED_ the text. I have found that if there are changes in the controls that appear after the text is _SELECTED_, then the typography controls you have shown above don’t work on changing the text.

@dan Might this be a bug, or an “as intended”??

Hey @Godber, can you share that document via Elements Cloud so we can take a look at the issue and get it fixed for the next beta?
