5.8.2.1. Fonts Tab Layout
The "Fonts" tab of the configuration window allows you to customize all font styles, both for the title and for the text of the note, depending on which part of the note has the focus (done by clicking it).
If the title of the note is focused, then all font styles are applied to the title text, but, if the note text is focused, then all font styles are applied only to the
selected part of the text. Also, when you select either the title text or the note text, all font styles are automatically detected at the respective font controls of the configuration window, which means that they are filled accordingly to the style of the selected text.
Below you can find the layout details of the "Fonts" tab of the configuration window:
