Style text with USS

You can style text with USS text properties inline in UXML, a USS file, or directly in UI Builder.

Style text in USS and UXML

Text properties are regular USS style properties. You can set text style properties on any element. Unlike most USS style properties, text style properties propagate to child elements.

The following USS example styles the Label text to bold, italic, and have a font size of 39px:

Label {
    -unity-font-style: bold-and-italic; 
    font-size: 39px;
}

The following UXML inline style example applies the same style to the Label text:

<ui:UXML xmlns:ui="UnityEngine.UIElements" xmlns:uie="UnityEditor.UIElements">
    <ui:VisualElement>
        <ui:Label text="Label" style="-unity-font-style: bold-and-italic; font-size: 39px;" />
    </ui:VisualElement>
</ui:UXML>
