Description
Describe the bug
There has been a change in behaviour when editing text objects. In MS3 when you were editing text within the text object, and as long as no selection was made, "Text properties" in the Inspector could still be applied to the whole object.
However, in MS4, when the cursor is inside the text object, text properties for the whole object are disabled.
Is this by design or a regression?
To Reproduce
- Create a text object, staff text say.
- Allow the cursor to rest inside the object with nothing selected.
- Change a text property such as font-size, weight, style.
RESULT: Nothing happens
Expected behavior
As in MS3. At step 3 the text properties of the whole object should change. Only if characters are highlighted within the text object are properties applied on a character level.
