- Weight: 100 (thin) to 900 (black)
- Align: Left, Center, or Right alignment
- Line Height: Percentage of font size (e.g., 130% for comfortable reading)
Links Styling
Separate styling for links within your text:- Color: Link color (often blue or branded)
- Font Weight: Regular, Bold, etc.

Apply Styles Globally
The “apply styles to all titles” button (or subtitles/paragraphs) sets the default styling for that text type. This affects:- New elements: All future text elements of that type
- Non-customized elements: Existing elements using default styles
- NOT customized elements: Elements with manual style changes keep their custom formatting
To apply global styles to a customized element, first click “restore defaults”
to reset it to theme styles, then the global styles will apply.
Container Styles
For common container properties (padding, background, borders), see Elements Overview.Examples
Personalized Welcome
Benefit Statement with Emphasis
Multi-Style Headline
Create visual hierarchy with mixed formatting:- Main headline as Title type
- Subheading as Subtitle type
- Details as Paragraph type
Best Practices
Keep It Scannable
Break long text into short paragraphs. Users scan, they don’t read
word-for-word.
Use Type Hierarchy
Title → Subtitle → Paragraph creates natural reading flow and
visual structure.
Animate Sparingly
Use typing animation for key messages only. Too much movement
becomes distracting.
Test Variable Fallbacks
Always preview how text looks when variables are empty or have
long values.
Performance Tips
- Limit animations: Multiple typing animations can feel overwhelming
- Optimize line length: 50-75 characters per line for best readability
- Use web-safe fonts: Custom fonts may slow loading
- Test on mobile: Text that looks good on desktop might be too small on phones
Accessibility
- Maintain high contrast between text and background
- Keep body text at minimum 16px on mobile
- Use semantic types (Title for headings, Paragraph for body)
- Avoid conveying meaning through color alone
