Customize text typeface, size, and style in reports (Beta)

🚩
This documentation describes one or more public beta features that are in development. Beta features are subject to quick, iterative changes; therefore the current user experience in the Sigma service can differ from the information provided in this page.
This page should not be considered official published documentation until Sigma removes this notice and the beta flag on the corresponding feature(s) in the Sigma service. For the full beta feature disclaimer, see Beta features.

When building reports in Sigma, you can customize text elements to meet your branding needs by using preset text styles, as well as more granular typeface and font sizing options.

By default, when you create a text element in a report, a default preset style is used. Reports allow you to switch between the preset style options, as well as "break" these preset styles in favor of using a custom font or size. This document covers how to use the preset text styles available and how to switch to more customized font options if desired.

For more information on report themes and settings, like setting font throughout a report, see Customize report settings and themes (Beta). For more information on reports in general, see Reports overview (Beta).
