I think it is better to avoid setting absolute style info for labels, e.g. font size and color. This because system settings allow you to set, e.g. font size systemwide, and it would be ugly if suddenly some labels donât obey. Now, what could be done is to set some attributes like âbiggerâ, âsmallerâ, et cetera, and these should then take the system settings into account.

Does it make sense to be able to specify font and similar at Spec-level?
And not just font, also the size, color, or emphasis (which currently only emphasis is supported).
From one perspective it's handy, because I can change it at a whim, however I wonder whether this shouldn't be responsibility of some styler instead.
Text as far as I know is capable of storing styled information. This would enable to outsource the style information to someone else (e.g. your stylesheet). However from practical perspective for the end user it would be extra work as it would add an indirection step.
For TextModel that would be clearly better (because you might want to style different parts of text differently), however for LabelModel I'm not so sure.
Any opinions?
Thanks, Peter
