    Hello, I was trying to switch to using a single variable font on my website for all weights.

    While it works well in the text formats where I can add individual styles (using the slider / or weights dropdown), when I add text directly to a page layout with the [+ Text] I can not see any controls to alter the weight of the Variable font, (apart from the [B] Bold button).

    Maybe I am doing something wrong, or is it not possible?

    Thanks for any help!

      yes you can only use the variable font sliders when creating a textformat.
      not inside the texteditor.

      create a textformat with the settings you want, then use the button "format" in the texteditor to apply it

            @arminunruh I was trying to use variable font on laytheme, but the sliders without any number are so difficult to use accurately.

            Any plans to update this? Will be helpful

                I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.

                Before you post:
                1. When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
                2. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
                3. Disable all Plugins
                4. Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"

                This often solves issues you might run into

                When you post:
                1. Post a link to where the problem is
                2. Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
                3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
