Font size does not work properly with lists.

Created on 3 October 2024, 6 months ago

Problem/Motivation

Font size does not work properly with lists. The style attribute is added to the span tags and should be on the list element, as the markers now do not resize according to the font size.

Steps to reproduce

Create a new content item or edit an existing one.
Add a list (either ordered or unordered) inside a text field.
Apply custom font sizing to the text, such as increasing the font size of the list items.
Inspect the resulting HTML output:
- Font size styling is applied to individual <span> elements inside the list items.
- The list markers (e.g., bullets or numbers) do not scale according to the text size, leading to a misalignment or mismatch in size.

Proposed resolution

Instead of applying font-size styles to the tags inside the list items, apply the font size to the parent list element (<ul> or <ol>).
This ensures that both the text and list markers scale proportionally and maintain visual consistency.

Hi Mateusz
This is unfortunately an editor behavior and we cannot do much within the module.
There is a related issue on CKEditor's github. Leaving a comment and/or upvote may help a little bringing this issue to active works https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor5/issues/5752

Marking as postponed until upstream ticket is done.
After that we'll check if there will be something required to implement in Plugin Pack.

Closing for the time being as we are unable to resolve the issue until it's addressed in CKEditor core.
