If I apply formatting to text elements in whiteboard using keyboard shortcuts (i.e. ctrl-b/ctrl-i on windows), it applies formatting in edit mode, but then it doesn’t render correctly when i exit edit mode.

![whiteboard-format-bug](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/fibery/original/2X/7/7e1cfee986fb5f73e0a18c6e6a435a865e6daf7c.gif)

I’m unable to apply these formatting shortcuts using firefox (not sure why), so not sure if it’s an issue there.

Maybe applying inline formatting in whiteboard text blocks is not currently supported? I just habitually use the standard formatting controls on windows (ctrl-b / ctrl-i), and assumed it was supported since it applied formatting in edit mode .

Can confirm it works fine for me now. 😄  
Probably the quickest bug turnaround I’ve ever had, by the way. Also it seems you have great processes in place for handling feedback, and I like that.
