Rise: Default Font Size
In a course we are building, we are required to have a minimum font size of 18 for accessibility purposes. Is there any way to set the default font size (not just default font)? What happens is even if we save templates with content at 18 pt, as soon as we paste (whether we use paste, paste special, or paste and match formatting) it always resorts to a 17 pt font. This is very frustrating and can be time consuming for longer courses. Any insight you can provide would be great!

+1 for adding default font controls.
I cant believe something as simple and basic as default font size has been requested three years ago and nobody has done anything about it yet!

+1 for this request. I also added a feature request. I agree that this is a large pain point.

Yes indeed. I'm in the middle of a request to increase the default size to 20px. Now I know RISE is a responsive tool, but you should be able to have the ability to set an initial font size globally. Having to do that on each text block individually if you have 50 pages is not an efficient use of my time. Judging by the comments in here from 3 years ago to 5 days ago, and nothing has changed... I guess this isn't a priority???

I would also like to be able to change global font sizes for captions too, the current size is too small.

Very necessary. Have to say too often "it's been requested but is still not available...."

This would be great, considering now the block templates don't retain the size text you had set them at!

+1 Default font sizes would be an incredibly helpful feature.

I agree- the default size needs to be bigger. This font size is too small and doesn't meet the guidelines. Our learners are frustrated.
Adjusting every single block for the designer is VERY time-consuming and is not economical for any organization.

How hard can this be to add as a feature? +1 from me
