If the text properties in the property inspector are italic, they are
inheriting from another control with a lower layer, or inheriting from the
IDE itself. If the property is not italic, it's been set specifically on
the control.
Regardless, there will always be a number in the text size.

I found that when I created a button, the textsize property had not been
set, even though the IDE showed it to be 13. I then went to the IDE to
click the size up to `4, then back down to 13 and then, when I did:
put the texsize of btn “mybutton”, it showed the textsize correctly.
It’s just one of those frustrating mysteries one encounters. The copied btn
textsize was probably picking up the textsize from the fields that I had
already imported.
I’d have to call it a bug, I guess??
Best,

set the textSize of btn "SoAndSo" to 14
The curious part is that it changed when you pasted it. If you have a
textSize specified for the card it came from but not the card it was pasted
in, that would govern all controls that do not have their own testSize
property explicitly set.
