I added a Label role to my step plot and the labels are tiny. I need to increase the font size but can't find the control to do it. I feel like I'm missing the obvious. Please help! I'm using 7.5

I see you mentioned the version in the original post, sorry about that. I have looked at the step plot options, and there is no way to control the size of the Label values. For the step plot, the labels are actually a role in the plot.  For most graphs, the labels are an option that you toggle on and off, and so they can usually be adjusted by changing style options on the Options tab.

HI!
I have tried and can not find where to change it, some kind of functionality missing here 🙂
I tried to create a new diagram using the graph builder but was not able to change it there either...

Yes, unfortunately using the label role was the best way to do what I needed. I ended up abandoning that option completely due to the inability to format the text, and went with a worse option that at least is readable. It's unfortunate that something as simple as being able to change a font color and size got overlooked in this case.
