Quick summary
Highlighting text in Framer involves wrapping a text element in a component stack, adding padding, and applying a Fill color to create a visible background highlight. This technique lets designers draw attention to key content directly within the Framer canvas without any code.
Steps

- Select the text you want to highlight.
- Use Add Stack (Ctrl+Alt+Enter) to wrap the text in a component stack for an organized layout.
- In the Layout section, adjust and add Paddings to create space around your text.
- Define custom properties for any component variations you need.
- Check layout consistency across breakpoints to ensure the highlight looks correct at every screen size.
- Click the Fill option to apply a background color to the text stack.
- Adjust the fill color to make the highlighted text stand out against the background.
- Your text is now successfully highlighted in Framer — review the final result on the canvas.
