Hi, the following is perhaps a noob question but I can't get it work just for a single use of the content function. I.e. how do I change the font size of a single content function without creating a helper function for it. I tried

  content((0, 0), {set text(size: 50pt)}, [b])

  content((0, 0), {set text(size: 50pt)[b]})

and

  content((0, 0), {set text(size: 50pt)b})

and variations on these but nothing was successful. What would be the right syntax for this? I did try to search the manual but couldn't find anything that describes such a situation.

Thank you for any help

Normal Typst syntax: content((0,0), text(size: 50pt)[b])

• or -
  content((0,0), { set text(size: 50pt); [b] }) (you need a space after the closing paren).

Hello Johannes,

Thank you very much for your answer, it resolved my issue. But including the space after the closing parenthesis as in your second example actually yields an error saying Expected semicolon or line break. Not including that space works though: content((2,0), {text(size: 50pt)[b]}) works. Just a detail. Anyway, thank you very much for answering my question and for creating this package together with fenjalien. I'm coming from TikZ and am learning CeTZ now, much respect for you and fenjalien creating it!

edit: also love CeTZ-plot ❤️

Thank you! :)
(Edited my answer, I wanted to write {set text(size: 50pt); [ ... ]}.)
