This allows you to define which text format is to be applied for all texts. The Normal format appears in the pop-up menu as the default setting. Clicking the Formats button displays the Text format edit dialog box. Here you can select the new attributes for the Normal format or create a new format. The new format then appears automatically in the pop-up menu.

This button is only available when changing the program preferences. You can then define additional formats that you want to use in all illustrations.

For the currently active file, the settings for the text formats are made in the relevant Text format edit dialog box. For working with the dialog, refer to Edit format in Show Attribute Window.
