Can I change the text size of a frame title in Lucidchart?

I like many things about the Lucidspark view, and use it most often.

But one thing I always hated was how restrictive it is with the font size

s on frames (“Small”, “Medium”, “Large”, ...).  I very often find that the “Huge” isn’t big enough for my needs.

In such circumstances, I would normally go to the old-school Lucidchart view. There, it lets me set a number for the size, and allows it to be over 100.

But I was trying to do this today. But the font size input is greyed out.

 

Is this a regression? Or a deliberate decision?

If the latter, it’s 100% in the wrong direction!

Why would you take away the (already little) flexibility you do give?

Look at this:

 

I’m trying to add a new Frame in my existing diagram. But it’s coming out tiny, despite it’s font size being “Huge”.  And I have no way to do anything about it.

The only “hack” I can think of for now is copy-pasting old frames I have across my various diagrams. I’ve made over the years.  That still seems to work. But still, I’d be stuck with whatever size they already have.

You guys see the user experience you’ve created?

 

I really hope this is a regression and not a planned change.

If it is, I’ll likely switch to another product. This is just too big of a limitation to deal with.

After digging in with some GPT help, I discovered that you can still manipulate the frame label but only if you create the frame first, which is bad UX. Why did this option go away?

Another workaround I found:

On the Lucidchart side, you can use the Rectangle Container, which does allow you to change the font size numerically in both Lucidchart and Lucidspark modes (yay?!).

But it lacks two nice abilities that Lucidspark Frames have:

  1. You can’t get a link from them to share them
  2. You can’t select a bunch of objects, and wrap them in a container with a single click (unlike with with Frames)

So, what I’m doing now is: 

I use both, one inside the other lol 😭

On the outside, use the Rectangle Container, which lets you customize the visual aspects (color and font)

Right inside it, make a Lucidspark Frame and make it transparent. This allows you to get a link to share it.

But from a UX perspective, it’s really frustrating that you have to do all this manual work, instead of having all of these functionalities with one type of container.
