Changing the weight of fonts outside the norm

I Need Help
1

Is there a way to change the weight (thickness) beyond

<p class="fw-bold">Bold text.</p>
<p class="fw-bolder">Bolder weight text (relative to the parent element).</p>
<p class="fw-normal">Normal weight text.</p>
<p class="fw-light">Light weight text.</p>
<p class="fw-lighter">Lighter weight text (relative to the parent element).</p>

of any local or web font?

Maybe it’s there, but I don’t see it. Wouldn’t it be cool to have a slider control to change the weight to the desired thickness.

The font weight available depends on the font-family you are using.

For better results, pick fonts that have a variety of weights by design.

For best results… google and read up on web fonts.

Thanks Pete,
I understand that. :wink: What if the font is already chosen but a different weight is desired?

Change font? :thinking:

Are you both saying the only choice is to change font?

If you select a weight a font family doesn’t have it falls back to the closest.

It’s not magic.

Early in the design process you choose font families that will give you the typography you want. A range of weights is not always a concern. But it sure makes things more flexible. Live and learn :grin:

Okay, why is it font weights can’t change, kind of like Adobe Pro fonts?
You would think there is some script that can do magic. :wink:

Before the question just keep rolling. Google and read up on web fonts. :grin:

By the way. Curious how it’s almost the one year anniversary of you asking basically the same question :joy:
