Comparing The Font Scale Types In Divi 5’s Variable Generator

Image
When you generate font size variables in Divi 5 , one of the most important choices is the scale type. Fluid, Fixed Responsive, and Fixed Single can all create a usable typography system, but they behave differently once those variables are applied across your site. The right choice depends on how you want your typography to respond across screen sizes. Do you want text to scale smoothly between viewport widths? Do you want exact values at each breakpoint?
