Heading

Heading displays a page or section heading. Its HTML heading level describes the content hierarchy, while its Design controls determine the visual size and typography.

Add and configure Heading

  1. Click Add, choose Heading, and place it in the container.
  2. Under Content > Content, replace Text with your heading.
  3. Choose Tags to match the heading's place in the page: h1 through h6.
  4. Set Design > Size, Typography, and Spacing.
  5. Save your changes.

This element has no children; use its own controls.

Controls

Responsive varies by breakpoint; Hover has a hover value; Shared applies across both. Linked controls have their own reference. In conditions, = means “is” and ≠ means “is not.”

Troubleshooting

The heading level changed but the text is still the wrong size

Set the visual size under Typography. Choose the HTML heading level for the document structure.

A long heading overflows

Check width, typography, and responsive font sizes. Test the longest expected text rather than only the short sample.
