Scale

Equal Tempered Piano

Select a Scale to define the relationship between different font sizes. These scales, inspired by musical intervals like Major Third and Perfect Fifth, help create a harmonious and balanced type rhythm across your design.

Line Grid

Show

Set a Line Grid in pixels to constrain Line Heights to multiples of this unit. For example, setting it to 4px will round all Line Heights to the nearest multiple of 4. To disable this constraint set the grid value to 1px, to prevent rounding.
