[ARCHIVED] Checking font size and style of text

[kanishka_saha]

Hello again,

Can anybody please tell me how or where do i check the font style/size of any selected text inside an editable Assignment or Group Discussion kind of box? Thanks.

Hello,  @kanishka_saha ‌, and welcome once again! The default font used in Canvas is Lato. If you need to inspect the font size and style of selected text, you'll need to switch views from the Rich Content Editor to the HTML Editor. Please refer to How do I use the HTML view in the Rich Content Editor?

If you need a deeper dive, you can use the Developer tools in the browser for a view-only look at the page.
