Controlling text size in all gallery "Descriptions"

I'm wondering if anyone knows if there's a way to change the text size for the "Descriptions" in all galleries at one go. At present I'm using the code <span style="font-size: 13pt"> to set the text size for each gallery. To change the text size for all galleries, I have to go to the edit descriptions box for each gallery individually and change the pt number eg 13 pt to 14 pt.

    I have the same in a bunch of gallery descriptions in legacy. Rather then editing a whole bunch of
    descriptions I've managed to override most of it on NewSmug using this class name added in "all galleries" CSS.

    .sm-gallery-description {....}

    Change font size and color as required.

    My opinion does not necessarily make it true. What you do with my opinion is entirely up to you.

    Hey @leftquark

    i was wondering what I m doing wrong. I copied the css command you posted in the custom css of my theme. Once I saved it everything is still the same. It seems to have no effect.
    However I tried several other commands and they all dont work or do nothing. So i m pretty sure i m doing something wrong,but I cant get my head around the problem.

    Your help is greatly appreciated.

    This is an old thread and I think the code has changed. If you want to change the color or size for the gallery descriptions use this:

    .sm-user-ui .sm-gallery-cover .sm-gallery-cover-description {
        color: yellow;
        font-size: 20px;
        }
    

    If you ant to change the color or size of the gallery titles use this:

    .sm-user-ui .sm-gallery-cover .sm-gallery-cover-title {
        color: red;
        font size: 30px;
        }

    Thanks a lot @"Hikin' Mike"

    so good to know that its not my mistake but just an old command. I didnt expect codes to change haha. Feels so good thanks heaps!
    Is there a page, where I can find all this up-to-date commands so that i dont have to ask every time? I mean I dont mind asking but you probably answer tons of comments each day :)

    What is the command in order to customise the font? This is what I found but it doesnt seem to work either. font-face: Arial;

    Best wishes and thanks for solving my problem!

    Only the class names and ID's on a page probably have changed, the parameters in the CSS are the same.

    I think SM changed things when they added cover images. .sm-gallery-description wasn't working anymore. Had to use .sm-user-ui .sm-gallery-cover .sm-gallery-cover-description and .sm-user-ui .sm-gallery-cover .sm-gallery-cover-title for titles.
