I know. When I wrote you that Faux bold and italic was not displaying either I meant that it would be cool and also logical to see selectable boxes for T T next to theTT TT T¹ T₁ selectable boxes.
Did you perhaps open the context menu for the entire panel (at the top with "Properties: ...") rather than the one in the Text section? The Text and Paragraph sections in the Properties panel each have content menus with options that pertain to those sections.
Thanks for making this request! You can currently access the Faux Bold and Faux Italics in the context menu of the Properties panel (see the image below). Do you use these attributes frequently? How do you use them versus using a true bold or italic font of a given typeface?
