How to make text Italic with a script?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’ve been working on a project in Roblox Studio, and I’d like to know how I can create italicized text for TextLabel and TextButton elements.

I also tried using Enum.FontFace However, it seems to only support making text bold, semi bold, light, etc.

How do I script my text labels to be italicized?

You can create a Font datatype and set this to the FontFace property:

function setItalicized(textLabelOrButton, isItalicized)
	local family = textLabelOrButton.FontFace.Family
	local weight = textLabelOrButton.FontFace.Weight
	local style = if isItalicized then Enum.FontStyle.Italic else Enum.FontStyle.Normal
	textLabelOrButton.FontFace = Font.new(family, weight, style)
end

Chatgpt was able to give me the answer after clarifying that rich text is outdated but i appreciate the help.
