Important Note
Popularity of a Feature Request is one of the factors we consider when we decide which new features to implement. Therefore, we strongly recommend you to search the forum with possible keywords.
If your request is very similar to an existing one, like it () and make a meaningful comment, rather than creating a new thread. It also keeps the forum sane! If you find duplicate threads, feel free to send the moderators a message.

Use case or problem
Currently, there is no built-in way to change the font size or color of individual characters/text without using CSS snippets or plugins. This makes it harder for users who want quick, native control over text appearance — for example, to improve readability, create visual emphasis, or match personal accessibility needs — without editing CSS manually.
Proposed solution
Add native support for customizing font size and font color directly within the editor (e.g., via a toolbar option, inline syntax, or settings panel). This could work similarly to existing inline formatting (bold, italic) but allow users to pick a specific size and color for selected text, without requiring a plugin or custom CSS snippet.
