GM Notes no longer includes font color and spacing?

Under this type of font area, such as clicking on an object, there used to be an option to change font color or change from single or double spacing. These options seem to have been removed. Am I wrong? Is there a way to customize options in the text window toolbar?
I don't know about color, but I do know the single/double spacing thing was overhauled in the last update. It's now just one type of spacing, but it's supposed to be more flexible.

There was a problem with the font color and so the feature was removed. Hopefully it'll be restored at some point. As for the spacing, here is the update Van referenced: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/361734/new-update-9-slash-24-selected-token-variables-slash-abilities-roll-to-initiative-text-editor-upgrades-and-more#post-361734" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/361734/new-update-9-slash-24-selected-token-variables-slash-abilities-roll-to-initiative-text-editor-upgrades-and-more#post-361734</a> - Gauss

I don't recall having access to changing text color (though I didn't have any desire to do so anyway). However -- and this is probably a bug -- you can paste HTML into the description/notes and the expected output will appear. Try pasting one of these into the GM notes on a throwaway token: &lt;font color="red"&gt;foo&lt;/font&gt; &lt;span style="color:red"&gt;foo&lt;/span&gt; There's a thread around somewhere about doing this with tables to make character sheets in the character bio area. I just tested both of the above and they worked, including saving the result.

Brian, font color does not work after I hit save while span style does. - Gauss

This isn't a bug, pasting HTML in to the box is supported as long as it's on the "approved" list of HTML that is allowed through the filter. &lt;span&gt; is approved. I don't think that &lt;font&gt; is so it would be stripped after save as Gauss pointed out. The problem is actually that since we switched to the new linebreak format, the text color/background color selector basically turns the entire document into the color when you select it instead of the selection only. I have a bug report in with the 3rd party who makes the rich text editor we use, hopefully they will fix that soon and it can be re-enabled

Thanks everyone
