Fixing Typography Controls Freeze
When editing typography settings in Elementor, you may encounter a bug where the size controls freeze or become unresponsive after clicking the edit icon (pencil). This is a known Elementor core issue that occurs when fluid sizing (CSS clamp function) is used.
How to Fix
Follow these simple steps to unlock the frozen controls:
- Click the "Back to Default" arrow icon (↶) next to the frozen control
- Click away from the widget to unfocus the panel
- Click back on the widget to reopen the panel
- Typography controls now work correctly
Why Does This Happen?
Elementor's control panel UI has a compatibility issue with the CSS clamp() function used for fluid typography. The clamp values confuse Elementor's JavaScript, causing the controls to freeze.
This is an Elementor core issue, not a theme issue. The bug exists in Elementor itself and affects any theme using fluid typography with clamp().
