To reproduce this issue, please start Emacs with:
$ emacs -Q --eval '(setq font-lock-defaults nil)'
From the documentation of font-lock-defaults, my expectation is that I
can then use the "Faces" menu (under "Edit" and then "Text Properties"
in the menu bar) to assign faces explicitly to text in the buffer:
-- Variable: font-lock-defaults
... If its value is =E2=80=98nil=E2=80=99, ... you can use the =E2=
=80=98Faces=E2=80=99 menu
(under =E2=80=98Edit=E2=80=99 and then =E2=80=98Text Properties=E2=
=80=99 in the menu bar) to
assign faces explicitly to text in the buffer.
However, under "Edit", a "Faces" menu is unexpectedly not available.
Can you reproduce this issue?
Thank you and all the best,
Markus

The "Face" menu was removed in Emacs 28, so I've deleted that sentence
from the manual.
See NEWS.28 (search for "facemenu") about the change, which includes
how to get the old behavior back, if you want it.
I'm closing this bug with this message.

The "Face" menu was removed in Emacs 28, so I've deleted that sentence
from the manual.
See NEWS.28 (search for "facemenu") about the change, which includes
how to get the old behavior back, if you want it.
I'm closing this bug with this message.

To reproduce this issue, please start Emacs with:
$ emacs -Q --eval '(setq font-lock-defaults nil)'
From the documentation of font-lock-defaults, my expectation is that I
can then use the "Faces" menu (under "Edit" and then "Text Properties"
in the menu bar) to assign faces explicitly to text in the buffer:
-- Variable: font-lock-defaults
... If its value is =E2=80=98nil=E2=80=99, ... you can use the =E2=
=80=98Faces=E2=80=99 menu
(under =E2=80=98Edit=E2=80=99 and then =E2=80=98Text Properties=E2=
=80=99 in the menu bar) to
assign faces explicitly to text in the buffer.
However, under "Edit", a "Faces" menu is unexpectedly not available.
Can you reproduce this issue?
Thank you and all the best,
Markus
