Setting Headings at different sizes and styles

[Charisma Riley]

Some of the headings in our document have been modified to be very small, even though they are level 1. This was done by a past employee and we unsure how to duplicate it; copying and pasting doesn't fix it.

Ex (This is the document that exists):

You can see where my cursor is, right after the "a" in "Heading." And the type of text is "Heading 1." If I move the cursor into the table cell below, it turns to "paragraph," and when I put it on the "Heading 1 Text" *above* the table cell, it turns to "Heading 1" again. I can do this over and over. But, I cannot figure out how it was done. We are in Confluence Cloud, and therefore, not using any CSS. It's a neat trick, and we'd like to copy it to new documents.

Thanks, in advance!

Hi @Charisma Riley,

I just was able to reproduce this.  It's definitely not expected behavior but here we go:

1. create your table

2. select heading 1 in the cell you'd like to put the text

3. in the setting cog press "insert numbering column" (deselect if not needed)

4. press the "delete key" twice back in the intended heading cell

This should make the curser smaller and get the heading size as in your image.

I don't know why this happens like this but it worked for me.

Hopefully it helps!
