LAUNCHED: Allow modifying "Decoration" to the text styles already defined

One option that could be useful is to allow modifying the decoration of a text that has already been defined as a text style, because that way you do not have to create two or more text styles to simply add the decoration. As with alignment, it could be added below. thanks

Agree with this, now working on my third design system in Figma and think it is nuts you can’t manage the text decoration in styles.

Hope it is added in soon.

This is certainly one thing Sketch wins over Figma!! V Frustrating. In Sketch you can override so many text features of a text style without breaking the original style. It’s available to view in the inspector and so much easier to use than Figma. I also think not being able to define the text colour in Figma styles is time-consuming when you then have to go through and ensure all your text has the colour you want! In some ways its good to not have so many style, but generally you only need a small number of colour styles for text.

We need better type controls in Figma!

This is crucial to not have to break every preset style to just underline a part of the text… Any news on this?

Just ran into this myself—I have a base body font style that I want to use across my entire project, but be able to configure different components for different text sizes / weights / etc. Because of the constraints of game development, I only have a limited space to fit each text item into, so I’ll often need to tweak e.g. individual components to different sizes. Being able to have overridable properties (similar to components) would be super super helpful in this case.
