- Open Your Webflow Project
Ensure you have your Webflow project open in the designer view where you can edit elements. This is the starting point for making any style changes.
- Select the Text Element
Click directly on the text element on your page to select it. A blue outline will appear around the element, indicating it is selected and ready for styling.
- Access the Style Panel
In the right-hand sidebar, locate and click on the 'Style' tab. This panel contains all the visual styling options for your selected element.
- Expand Typography Settings
Within the Style panel, scroll down until you find the 'Typography' section. Click its header to expand the various text styling options.
- Apply the Overline Style
Under the 'Decor' options within the expanded Typography settings, click the 'Overline' button. This will instantly add an overline to your selected text.
- Verify the Overline
Observe your text element on the canvas. It should now display a line above it, confirming that the overline style has been successfully applied.
