Note¹: If your text contains special characters (e.g., å, ę, ε) that aren't supported by your font, you will notice a warning label on the properties bar. In this situation, we recommend to use a different font or remove the unsupported characters.
Note²: You can only type the font size value when working on a single design or when you're in focus mode while working on a set.
