Text-style

The text-style style sets the style for the text in a widget.

Syntax

--8<-- "docs/snippets/syntax_block_start.md" text-style: <text-style>; --8<-- "docs/snippets/syntax_block_end.md"

text-style will take all the values specified and will apply that styling combination to the text in the widget.

Examples
