How Do You Use Text Styles in Figma?

Text styles are one of the essential elements of any design project. They can be used to create a consistent look and feel across the whole design, or to emphasize certain pieces of text.

It can be difficult to keep track of which fonts, sizes, and colors you’ve chosen for your project. Figma makes it easy with its text style features.

With Figma, you can create global text styles that will apply to all text within the project. To do this, simply select all of the text in the project and right-click.

From here, choose ‘Create Text Style’ and name it whatever you like. Now you’ll have a style ready to use wherever you need it throughout your design.

Figma also allows you to create styles based on specific fonts and font families. This is especially useful if you have a library of fonts that you want to use regularly in your work.

To do this, simply go into the Text tab and select ‘Create Font Style’ from the drop-down menu. Here, you can choose a font and set its properties like size, weight, letter spacing, line height, etc.

In addition to creating global styles or font-specific styles, Figma also has some helpful features for customizing individual pieces of text with styling options like bolding or italicizing words or phrases without having to type them out again each time. To do this, just highlight the text and then click on one of the styling options in the toolbar above it (like bold or italic). You can also add color or other effects like shadows and outlines to single words or phrases as well by using the same toolbar options above them when they are selected.

Finally, Figma makes it easy to preview how any changes made will look before they are applied by clicking on ‘Preview’ in the top right corner when editing any style settings in either Global Styles or Font Styles menus. This helps ensure that all changes are consistent across designs and help maintain a cohesive overall look for your project.

Conclusion:Figma offers an array of tools for creating custom text styles for projects quickly and easily. From creating global styles that apply across all text in a project to setting up font-specific styles or even customizing individual pieces with styling options; Figma helps make sure all designs have a consistent look throughout them.
