Colouring person on a chart

Post by pgen » Sun Mar 15, 2015 6:23 am

On a chart, a person (and their bdm details) is shown with different font elements - bold-lower case, bold-upper case, and regular fonts.
If I select this person and what to add a colour to all those details I can go to format, font and select a new colour.
While the selection changes colour, it also changes to one font as given in the font format box.
While I could select individual elements and change colours it a long way to do it.

Can the selection of colour be separated from the selection of font so the process of colour change be simplified

Hi,
Please use the "Line colour" on the Colour Palette to change the colour of text elements. See: Setting colours
