All text converted to italics. Fix?

Hey @Hendrickson_Jeff, thank you for reaching out! Hmm, this sounds odd.

Did this happen in a specific file? Also are you seeing this in the browser and the desktop app?

Can you try to manually re-assign a font across a file:

1. Select an element using the font you want to replace.
2. In the Quick Actions menu (Command/Control + /) enter and select ‘Select all with same text properties’ or Select all with same font’
   
3. In the font picker assign the correct font and properties.
4. You’ll need to repeat this for each variation of font as the selector is quite filtered (eg, italic, bold, font weight) and repeat for each page in a file.

Alternatively you can try to view your file’s version history and to restore a previous version.

To view and restore a previous version:

1. Open version history in the right sidebar.
2. Select the version to preview it in the viewport.
3. In the right sidebar, click […] next to the version and select Restore This Version.
4. Figma will add two autosave checkpoints to the file’s version history.
   • A checkpoint that saves the current version up until you clicked Restore This Version. This as an autosaved version with a timestamp that matches the current time.
   • A checkpoint at the same timestamp for the version you just restored.
5. Click the Edit current version to exit version history.

Please let me know if this solves your issue, happy to help further!

@Gayani_S It happened in one file and it is visible in the browser and the desktop app.
The “Quick Actions” solution worked! And I learned something new and useful.
Thank you so much!

This just happened to me on a specific page and I noticed that the only text affected was inside a dev ready section. Super weird 🥲

Hi @Larissa_Gusmao, that does sound unusual, especially if it’s only affecting text within a dev-ready section.

Could you try the troubleshooting steps I mentioned above? Sometimes a quick cache clear or switching between the desktop app and browser can help reset things.

If the issue persists, please let me know, and I’ll connect you with our support team to investigate further. We’ll do our best to get this resolved for you!

Yeah, I was able to manually change it back, thanks! But yes, super weird! Hopefully it won’t happen again…

This happens to me too. not sure how it happen. all text in multiple artboard of a section is change to Italic. I need to go back to a version and copy the artboard and replace. Not sure how to replicate the error.

I am getting this too.
Strangely, the text automatically reverts to default when I change the nearest text to italic… 😅

Hey there, thank you for flagging this. I’m sorry you’re experiencing this!

Let’s work through a few things to get a clearer picture of the issue:

1. Could you let me know if this is happening in a specific file or across multiple files?
2. Are you seeing the issue in both the browser and desktop app?
3. Please try clearing your cache, sometimes clearing the cache can resolve issues.

• For the desktop app: Clear Desktop Cache
• For browsers, here are guides for each:
  • Google Chrome
  • Safari
  • Mozilla Firefox
  • Microsoft Edge

4. Can you provide a screen recording ?

Thank you for your help!
