Updated April 25, 2024: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.
Coming soon: When authoring pages in Microsoft SharePoint, authors will be able to choose the heading level for titles in web parts to help define the hierarchy of information on a page. As we’re introducing this new capability, we’re also using it as an opportunity to align the default heading font size in the Text web part. New heading default font sizes:
- Heading 2 will now be 24, previously was 28
- Heading 3 will now be 20, previously was 24
- Heading 4 will now be 18, previously was 20
This message is associated with MC670896 Accessibility Improvements to Page Authoring (August 2023) and with Roadmap ID 387500.
[When this will happen:]
Targeted Release: We will begin rolling out early April 2024 and expect to complete by mid-April 2024.
General Availability (Worldwide, GCC, GCC High, DoD): We will begin rolling out mid-April 2024 and expect to complete by late May 2024 (previously early May).
[How this will affect your organization:]
Authors will now have the ability to set their own heading level. If not set, the default will continue to be Heading 2. New and existing pages and news posts will see the new default heading font sizes.
[What you need to do to prepare:]
This rollout will happen automatically by the specified date with no admin action required. You may want to notify your SharePoint authors about this change and update any relevant documentation as appropriate.
