I think another option under topography would be a changeable "blockqoute"

Blockquote is a function to make a statement or passage to stand out. WP's own blockquote wasn't too bad, but seems unavailable with this fantastic theme.

Generate Press needs to enable making a "blockqupte" to a different text, size, font, color, etc.

Thanks, Genie

I agree - it would be good to have those options. It takes up a lot of resources to have the font family boxes (so many options stored in each dropdown) - but the other options are definitely do-able.

For now, you can make changes to it with simple CSS:

blockquote {
      font-size: 20px;
      font-weight: bold;
      font-style: italic;
}

Just wanted to say that I added your css (above) to the bottom of the css stylesheet and it worked perfectly.

I did change it a bit.

blockquote { 

      font-family: garamond;
      font-size: 26px; 
      font-style: italic; 
}

Excellent help from you, as always.

Thank you,
Genie

That would be a nice feature. I just settle for whatever the theme does but I used to like styling blockquotes to make them stand out and take away from the boxy text look for longer posts.

They're quite easy to style using CSS, but it could definitely become a feature in one of the add-ons :)
