It’s a nightmare trying to support our inline link style right now. Currently must be manually placed and absolutely positioned if the text it’s apart of is inside of an auto-layout container.

I also need it for a design system project. Please make it possible soon!

We also need to change the underline thickness (you might need very fine lines or extremely thick ones for the same text size).

Is there perhaps a plugin to accomplish this?

Don’t want to use hacks and workarounds anymore…

+1 here! :pray:

that would be an awesome feature.

+1 here for underline styling!

If I create multiple typographic styles, I find it bothersome that I then have to create yet more styles to add very simple touches to them, such as underlines or line-throughs. I don’t believe I should have to create brand new styles just to simulate a simple link, nor should I have to break an existing style to achieve it.

Is there a way you can easily modify a style to have an underline but not break the link to the original pre-defined style?

+1 for underline parity with CSS!

Plus 1 for underline offset and underline css styling.

Still needed :slight_smile:

+1 to dotted underline support!

I think I may have found a workaround, at least for dotted or dashed underlines.

Here’s a demo file to just get a look:

Writing this all out was taking too long, so I made a video instead:

Pretty new Figma user here, coming from many years of designing mostly typographic designs in Indesign, I find Figma very limited. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect to be able to do all the “basic” styling that’s possible in CSS styling.
Underline thickness, offset, etc. These are definitely basic in my world.
