Change Font (Size) on grouping variables in graph builder

In the graph builder, when using a grouping variable, the Font Size of the label can't be changed easily. The only method I found is to change the general "text" font size in the Preferences menu. This is impractical for 2 reasons :

- it changes the settings on the whole software so it can't be done graph by graph 

-  as the "text" font size is very general, it applies to A LOT of items in the software. If you have ever tried changing it, it messes up all your windows, graphs, etc, making them unusable.

 

 

So, I would like to request this to be changeable, just like for the X and Y axes. While we're at it, have the same label options as for the other axes, like orientation, etc.

I've had the same difficulties with Group Fonts in Graph Builder. The best workaround for me is CTRL SHIFT + to enlarge everything in JMP, copy/paste, then reduce everything again with CTRL SHIFT -. Works on windows, not sure for Mac.

The following wish goes in a similar direction:
