            I would say the implementation is a good start and went quick, thanks a ton for that! 

            Now comparing Confluence and JIRA, they do look quite different. 

            Jira is way higher and is always centered. Confluence is narrower and bound to the right side. 

            Maybe for identical look & feel for the users, an alignment would make sense here

            Overall, we are happy and it comes just in time for our Live migration next month

            line spacing (especially if there is a numbered/bulleted list) and the vertical scrollbar need some tweaking

            @Anusha Rutnam I see it on our instance. It seems rather limited: no different fonts, sizes, colours for the text etc.

            Hello,

            This is a great add for us, I am testing it and it is working.
            just one thought : it is not possible to change the color of the text ?

            Thanks by advance,

            Regards,

            Jonathan Brunerie
