Describe the feature

Changing font size (and type) within the button text would give more flexibility in designing buttons with out using an external graphic editor. Maybe in CSS style:

An overhaul of the button graphics generation is planned for the mid future. I can't promise when, if or in what kind rich text features will make it, but there will be substancial new possibilities. I keep this request open as a reminder.

Bumping this. Even having arbitrary font sizes would be good. I can't believe the current useful options are either 7pt or 14pt with nothing in between.

In 3.2 it does allow arbitrary sizes

It isn't for me on 3.2.0 stable or 3.3.0 betas (with macOS Intel builds). And I can't see an option in settings to turn on the newer behaviour either. What am I missing?

I came here because I just upgraded my test environment to 3.2.0 (3.2.0+6663-stable-b83f412f). I've got nearly 100 buttons that looked great at 7pt size on <3.2, and they're now too small with the new font. It would be great to at least have 10pt in the dropdown list.

It's not obvious, but I also discovered you can type any value into the dropdown field. Hope this helps, @jgclark
