WText('Extra Small Text', className: 'text-xs'); // 12px
WText('Base Text', className: 'text-base'); // 16px
WText('Large Text', className: 'text-lg'); // 18px
WText('Gigantic Text', className: 'text-6xl'); // 64px
Basic Usage
Apply font sizes using the text- prefix followed by a named size key:
WText('Small label', className: 'text-sm');
WText('Body text', className: 'text-base');
WText('Section heading', className: 'text-2xl font-bold');
Quick Reference
Predefined sizes are stored in rem units and resolved against the REM factor (WindTheme.getRemFactor(), which is pixel factor × 4 = 16 by default). The final size is calculated as:
Size (rem) × REM factor (16 by default) = Final size in px
| Class | REM | Default px | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
text-xs |
0.75 | 12px | Extra small |
text-sm |
0.875 | 14px | Small |
text-base |
1.0 | 16px | Base size |
text-lg |
1.125 | 18px | Large |
text-xl |
1.25 | 20px | Extra large |
text-2xl |
1.5 | 24px | Very large |
text-3xl |
1.875 | 30px | Extra extra large |
text-4xl |
2.25 | 36px | Huge |
text-5xl |
3.0 | 48px | Massive |
text-6xl |
4.0 | 64px | Gigantic |
Responsive Design
Combine size classes with breakpoint prefixes to adjust text size per screen width:
WText('Responsive heading', className: 'text-base md:text-xl lg:text-3xl');
Arbitrary Values
Use bracket notation to set any pixel size not in the predefined scale. The value is treated as raw pixels:
WText('Custom 22px text', className: 'text-[22]');
WText('Tiny 8px label', className: 'text-[8]');
Customizing Theme
Add or override font size keys with WindTheme.setFontSize(key, remValue):
WindTheme.setFontSize('giant', 5);
// Now text-giant = 5 × 16 (rem factor) = 80px at the default factor
WText('Giant text', className: 'text-giant');
