Hello,  
I was wondering if there is a way to make simple changes to text for the app, such like centering a title or making text bold?

I did change to rich text component and I see by bullets have changed and all. But is there a section with more options once I’ve made that change?

You can use HTML in the rich text, giving you all the options…

Try this:

```auto
<div style="
position:fixed;
padding:0px 11px;
background-color:white;
color:maroon;
border:solid 0px;
border-radius: 8px;
box-shadow: 0px 0px 9px lightgrey;
font-size:15px;
right:19px; 
top:400px;
min-width:200px;
height:39px;
line-height:39px;
text-align: center;
"><b>button 1
</div>

```

You don’t need to use HTML to make text bold. The native text component allows you to do so with the “Style” variable (use Headline 1, 2, etc) and align it to be centered.
