Where to Find the Heading Text Options

Heading Text Customization Settings

  1. Heading Level: Choose the heading level you want to assign to the heading text: h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, or h6.

  2. Heading Font: Select the font for the heading text. By default, the theme’s standard font is applied, but you can choose another font or upload a custom font from the dropdown menu.

  3. Heading Font Weight: You can adjust the boldness of the heading font by selecting from the available font weights, which range from light to extra bold.

  4. Heading Font Style: Customize the style of the heading text by applying:

    • Italicized

    • Capitalized

    • Small Capitals

    • Underlined

    • Strike-through

  5. Heading Text Alignment: Set the alignment specifically for the heading text:

    • Left

    • Center

    • Right

    • Justify

  6. Heading Text Color: Pick a color for the heading text. You can select from your site’s color palette or use the eyedropper tool for custom options.

  7. Heading Text Size: You can define the size of the heading text using the range slider or by entering a specific value. This ensures proper scaling for your design.

  8. Heading Letter Spacing: You can adjust the spacing between each letter by dragging the range slider or entering a value. Higher values create more space between characters.

  9. Heading Line Height: To enhance readability, you can control the vertical spacing between lines of heading text by using the slider or entering a numerical value.

  10. Heading Text Shadow: Add a shadow effect to the heading text. Once applied, you can configure:

    • Horizontal and vertical shadow direction

    • Shadow blur strength

    • Shadow color

Tips for Using Heading Text Options

  • Use Hierarchy Effectively: Assign heading levels (h1-h6) consistently to establish a clear content hierarchy.

  • Match Design Aesthetics: Select fonts, colors, and styles that align with your site’s overall branding.

  • Optimize Readability: Adjust size, spacing, and line height to make headings easy to read.

  • Add Subtle Effects: Use text shadows sparingly to enhance contrast without overpowering the design.
