Hi,
After the recent Confluence update, we can’t find the “Style” box in the article editing tool. This box was used to insert the necessary code to adjust how our articles look and operate.


Since Confluence is slowly moving towards a new version of articles and updating existing articles to new “standard” causes a problem with the Style box feature I would like to ask if was it concealed somewhere else. Is there still a way to get to it in the new editor?

Hi @Oskar Zdebelak 

After I made a bit research on your use case and learnt that your layer of Confluence Cloud is transitioned to a new editing experience – Fabric.

This new editor, Fabric, offers a more streamlined interface and might not include the "Text Styles" dropdown you're used to

Some users, might still see the familiar editor with the "Text Styles" dropdown, while others might have transitioned to Fabric.

Please refer to the below help article and see if it helps you.

Try out the new editing experience (atlassian.com)

Hi @Oskar Zdebelak 

To your point the dedicated “Style” box is no longer available in your Confluence editor - then

would you like to make things with -  HTML macro or User Macros to include custom CSS rules within your articles ?

Regards

Hi @Humashankar VJ 
We use a CSS code to adjust our articles. Below you can find a small part of a code we are currently using. 

@font-face { font-family: 'Rubik'; font-style: italic; font-weight: 300; src: local('Rubik Light Italic'), local('Rubik-LightItalic'), url(https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/rubik/v8/iJWBBXyIfDnIV7nEldWYwWz-6aJ8x8utUQ.woff2) format('woff2'); unicode-range: U+0100-024F, U+0259, U+1E00-1EFF, U+2020, U+20A0-20AB, U+20AD-20CF, U+2113, U+2C60-2C7F, U+A720-A7FF; }

We need an alternative to the Style box from the previous version.

@Humashankar VJ Is this some new feature that is rolling out in Cloud?

I don't see this in my instance—I still see the Text Styles dropdown between the undo/redo buttons and bold/italic/etc. buttons on the editor toolbar.

Hi @Barbara Szczesniak - You are right, i read in a blog on the style vs Styles and in an impression that might not be available in all instances yet, Seams it is all about use the "Stylesheet" option.

Hi @hniedzwiedzinski - Please ignore my recommendation,

@Humashankar VJ I want to follow up here. Is there a way to implement custom code in the updated articles? Previous versions of articles had a dedicated "Style" box.
