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

+1 I need to add superscript to a text style without detaching it.

+1 still waiting for this feature. I need to edit text underlines, not just borderlines.

Hi! I’ve created a plugin Underline It. It can add underlines to text styles without detaching the style.

+1 need this! Please add underlines as style overrides, just like is already possible with e.g. list style and truncation.

We need this!!! 😩

This seems to have been implemented this week… I can hit cmd+B to bold a text without breaking the text style. BUT I can’T find any official mention of it anywhere in Figma’s changelog. I want to see all the possible options for this kind of formatting

Hey All,

Applying italics, bolding, and underline to text on top of a text style will now override the text style to apply the decoration. You no longer have to detach decorated text from its text style or create multiple text styles to incorporate italics, bolding or underlines! 🎉

⌘B or Ctrl+B = bold
⌘I or Ctrl+I = italicize
⌘U or Ctrl+U= underline
⌘⇧X or Ctrl+⇧X = strikethrough

Cool to see this implemented – is there any way to control what font weight the ‘bold’ override uses? For instance using a semi-bold weight rather than full bold.

This feature is super useful 🙂 , but it doesn’t solve much for those who use fonts that require semibold weights 😦

Am I the only person here who doesn’t know how on earth are you doing that? I can’t find a way to do this anywhere, not even in the video… there are no new icons, no anything, is it some shortcut I am not aware of? I really love having to google how new features work, because they are so unintuitive, only to end up on forums, where I get to see a short clip with absolutely no explanation.
