Check points

  • Only settings changed after selecting text are applied to the selected characters.
  • Settings that affect the whole text, such as text direction and alignment, may not be shown while individual characters are selected.
  • Changing too many characters individually can make the text hard to read, so narrow it down to the characters you want to emphasize.
