[Support request] Text size cannot be changed

[Andreas]

When I enter new text, I cannot change the font size. only the line spacing changes.
It should be this size:

But this is how it is:
https://milkyrace.de/luefterbuegel

The text on that page is inheriting its size from a <span style=”font-size: large;”>

[Andreas]

Thanks very much. How and where can I set it so that I always have the larger font?

[Pete Williams]

This will depend on what you used to build the page. After checking the page source, it appears as though it was built with Elementor, so it will likely be within the Style tab within Elementor for that page (though I’m not 100% as I don’t use Elementor).

Hope that helps.

[Andreas]

Yes I use Elementor. The problem is when I want to add a new text, I can change the font size of the old text via style, but with the new text when I go to font size, I can only change the line spacing.
So I’m back to my initial question.

[Pete Williams]

My best guess would be that it’s either a cache issue or that the content was copy/pasted, and the text came along with some formatting.

Try copying the content into Notepad (or a similar program on Mac) as that will remove the formatting, and then copy it from Notepad and paste it into a new text box on your page. Hopefully, that will allow you to then change the size, etc.

You can also right-click and Paste without formatting or Ctrl+Shift+V.

Fingers crossed!

Thanks Pete for the assist.

Andreas if you can try Petes suggestion of Paste without Formatting.

Let us know.

[Andreas]

Yes, I’ll try it and get in touch.
Thanks

[Andreas]

Yes, it really was the formatted text. After I rewrote the text and exchanged it, everything worked again and the font size was correct.
Thanks very much

[David]

Thx Pete!

[Pete Williams]
