Changing font for part of text in python-pptx
Question: I'm using the python-pptx module to create presentations. How can I change the
font properties only for a part of the text?

**I currently change the font like this:**

    
    
    # first create text for shape
    ft = pres.slides[0].shapes[0].text_frame
    ft.clear()
    p = ft.paragraphs[0]
    run = p.add_run()
    run.text = "text"
    
    # change font
    from pptx.dml.color import RGBColor
    from pptx.util import Pt
    
    font = run.font
    font.name = 'Lato'
    font.size = Pt(32)
    font.color.rgb = RGBColor(255, 255, 255)
    

Thanks!


Answer: In PowerPoint, font properties are applied to a _run_. In a way, it is what
defines a run; a "run" of text sharing the same font treatment, including
typeface, size, color, bold/italic, etc.

So to make two bits of text look differently, you need to make them separate
runs.
