Allow Organization Shared theme to be customised in Experience Builder - default font setting

Experience Builder allows you to choose an Organization Shared theme when building experiences, with the Organizational shared theme set in ArcGIS Online. However, the Shared theme settings in ArcGIS Online do not allow a font to be set, and the Organization Shared theme in Experience Builder cannot be edited to choose a default font. Please enable default font selection when the Organization Shared theme is being used.

This is unbelievable to me that this post has 1000 views but 5 kudos. This is essential! Why is there so many limitations in EB? This would allow the ability to use organizationally shared colors and change the font for the entire application. Instead I need to do it manually....

Agree with @JustinH that it's shocking there's less interest in this still. It would make management of ExB apps much easier for organizations that have policies and standards to adhere to, especially when we're being told to move to ExB and away from WAB. The current set up requires individual app developers to manually configure any text-oriented widgets which is tedious and prone to error. If this can't be enabled at the larger org level like colors and logos are, then I agree that being able to set this directly in the ExB org theme menu offers a broad enough sweep to save a lot of time.

Adding again to this, I was watching ESRI's accessibility learning plan and saw that you can set the focus indicator color in ESRI themes which I hadn't noticed before. Since we can't customize our organization theme at all, this element might also hit a compliance issue with the default cyan blue might not be compliant. Still surprised we can't at least open the page even if we're not allowed to adjust the colors.

Please solve this one! we either need to be able to change the Typography size for the shared theme or update those settings in exb.

The default size of controls is too small.
