Can we add a way to make text italic in each element? Similar to how we can already change the Font Weight?

Hi @radiowar Thanks for your feature request, I’ve logged an issue for it: [Add text decoration for all Element types (#3605) · Issues · Baserow / baserow · GitLab](https://gitlab.com/baserow/baserow/-/issues/3605)

Here is a workaround for _some_ elements. If the element’s label supports markdown, you can use markdown syntax to make the text italic. E.g. in the Text element’s settings, you can add a `_` (underscore) to the start and end of the text:
