Inline Text Styles

Apply different colors, fonts, sizes, and gradients to individual words within a single text layer

Orshot Studio lets you mix different styles within a single text layer — bold one word, change the color of another, or even apply a gradient to a selection. No need to split your text across multiple layers.

How It Works

  1. Double-click a text layer to enter edit mode
  2. Select the word(s) you want to style
  3. Use the sidebar controls to change the style for just the selected text

That's it — the rest of the text stays as-is.

What You Can Style Inline

PropertyHow to apply
BoldSelect text → press Cmd+B (or Ctrl+B on Windows)
ItalicSelect text → press Cmd+I (or Ctrl+I)
UnderlineSelect text → press Cmd+U (or Ctrl+U)
ColorSelect text → pick a color from the sidebar
GradientSelect text → pick a gradient from the color picker
FontSelect text → choose a different font in the sidebar
Font SizeSelect text → change the font size in the sidebar
Font WeightSelect text → adjust the weight in the sidebar

Gradient Text

You can apply a gradient color to selected words:

  1. Double-click the text layer and select some text
  2. Open the Color picker in the sidebar
  3. Switch to the Gradient tab
  4. Choose your gradient — it applies instantly to the selection

The gradient is rendered using CSS background-clip: text, so it works in both the editor and in your final rendered images.

Tips

  • Keyboard shortcuts (Cmd+B, Cmd+I, Cmd+U) work while editing text — no need to reach for the sidebar
  • You can combine multiple inline styles — e.g. a word can be bold, italic, and gradient all at once
  • Inline styles are preserved when rendering via the API — what you see in the editor is what you get in the output
  • To reset a word's color back to the layer default, select it and pick the layer's base color again
