Hi! Thanks for the great library! I am using webpage plugin and what I am interested in is editing text. I know that this functionality is already in there and we can edit text by double clicking on it, but how can I do it separately? like having an additional dropdown on the right pane where "General", "Typography" etc. live to make changes there in some textarea
