Justifying text

    Hello,
    I am tired of justifying block by clock separately by clicking these three dots in visual editor.
    Is there a way to justify whole post at once or maybe making justified text as a default setting?
    Cheers

    Hi @pamietnikpodrywacza, there’s not currently a built-in feature for that, since justified text becomes very difficult to read on small screens.

    We do have a request for an option to justify everything except the mobile view. Would you like me to add your request there?

    In the meantime, sites that have the Premium Plan or higher can use custom CSS, which can be used to justify all text.

    Thank you for the reply!
    I would love to see that feature.
    Unfortunately, I do not know what does it mean to add request, if it is anyhow binding for me.

    Hi @pamietnikpodrywacza what we mean to say is that we have a list (that our engineers refer to) of suggestions and improvements that have been given to us by site owners. Would you like us to add your suggestion so engineers can consider it when working on future improvements?

    It’s not binding, and we can’t guarantee it is something they will work on in the near future, but having that kind of feature request in front of them gives it a better chance of getting included in an upcoming version of the editor.

    Also, as @supernovia mentions you can upgrade to the Premium plan to override your theme styles (using CSS code) so that text would be justified automatically. This would mean that you would not need to set that manually block-by-block.

    We don’t expect you to know how to code in CSS and since this is a pretty simple change, if you upgrade please let us know and we can help with the code you need to automatically justify your text. You can learn more about our WordPress.com Premium Plan here: https://wordpress.com/pricing/

    Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
