Feature request: Extended formatting in rich text

[zaewin]

It would be nice to be able to have some more features in the rich text. For example:

• CSS class picker
• Heading tag picker (h1, h2, h3 etc)

Another option would be to allow switching between normal and html mode. Sometimes we want to tweak the markup.

Hi @zaewin,
Thanks for bringing this up.

The new Classic Text field can have headings:

Maybe you already know about this, but it's possible to add a CSS class for the entire block. Though it sounds like you had in mind adding a class for only the field.

@kienstra Hi!

That's great, I didn't realize that there was a new update! It would be nice to be able to switch to html input mode. Sometimes you might have a large text already in html and you just want to paste it into the block without having to reformat.

I do know about the block css class. However, I was rather thinking about a class picker just like the heading picker. Sometimes you'd probably want to style individual paragraphs with classes from your css. For example, if you want to achieve markup like this:

<h1>Heading</h1>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</p>
<p class="warning">Warning!</p>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</p>

Hi @azanoni – the Classic Text and Rich Text controls are available as part of Block Lab Pro.

Whoops. I think that reply answers your question, but the original feature request isn’t yet implemented, so reopening.
