Power Post - Changing the font?

Have downloaded the trial version of Power Post, but I can't see anywhere where you can change the font, or the font size, of your post. This option is available on the S-Drive dashboard when you post so I'm wondering if I'm just not seeing it, or if you can't do that in Power Post.

The formatting of your text is done by the theme you use in your stream.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Thanks for your answer, appreciate knowing I'm not going blind :) Seems odd that you can override the default theme font when you post to your stream from the coffee cup website but not from Power Post.

Although I'm having lots of font issues with S-Drive's stream (user errror I'm pretty sure lol), I would have to say that is one of the best things about Power Post. It cannot override your theme settings and that way you can have your clients purchase it with peace of mind knowing that the text isn't going to come up Lime Green on some Red background or something lol. In other words, your theme work (which is quite horrendous to do as it is without having to fix it) will stay intact and the posters that have access cannot mess up how it looks.

Now if only I could get the font to behave itself as I tell it to! LOL

It would be great to have the "option" as not all of us are working with clients.

I would like to be able to alter text colours and size on the fly during my post composition.
It is great to be able to customise a theme but in the full knowledge of my own theme formatting I would like to be able to change colours of certain words that I want to stand out and also change their size.

Maybe it would be good if we could just enter html tags at will. Then those of us who know how to write html font tags can have what we want and the novice user/client can't mess up a theme as they won't accidentally type <font color=.......> </font> etc.

Since we can customise photo appearances, we should be able to play with text too :)

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
