Allow copy + paste for text styles on individual letters or part of text

Hi, I’m trying to create a text block that has different fonts inside of it and it’s surprisingly difficult in Figma. The desired result is something like this: https://i.pinimg.com/564x/51/eb/10/51eb10ab5be583010b631e7207c135d9.jpg

I use Option+Command+C to paste style and it works just as expected if I select a whole block of text or any other object.

However, if I select just one letter or word in a text block and want to copy-paste a different style to them, there is no way to make it work. It just doesn’t copy the style unless the whole text block is selected. I have to choose the font and size manually which is time-consuming and strange.

Is there a workaround or a different hotkey combination to apply a style to just one letter in a text block?

I’ve also noticed this and have always wanted it to work. This is either a bug or a feature request.

I just verified this, that is the dumbest thing that copy and paste styles don’t work with part of text
