Text Styles and Size Improvements

The following improvements have been made:

• More available text sizes. Up to 500 px.
• Multiple types of text contained in a single text element. For example, Heading 2s, paragraph, and Heading 3s can all be used in the same element.
  
• Select font weight within the list. Point to a font in the list to select a font weight (normal, bold) for the font.
  
• Copy and paste works externally and internally. Pasting from both external locations and within the editor (internal) applies the theme text styles and any inline styles that were applied to the text in the editor. Bold, underline, and italic are maintained from the copied text.
• Custom line height. In addition to the existing default line heights, you can now choose a custom line height.
• Specify letter spacing. To select letter spacing, click the three dots icon in the inline text editor, and select from the following:
• Auto
• Narrow (-0.05)
• Wide (0.2)
• Custom (between -2 and 0.5 in increments of .01)
• All Caps. To change the font to be in all caps, click the three dots icon in the inline text editor, and click the All Caps toggle.
• Shadow. Select the color and position.
• Strike-through text.
• More bullet list style options. Click the down arrow next to the Bullet list() icon.
• Connect text to data. Click the connected data icon in the inline text editor.
