Multiple Text box select and formatting BUG

I want to select multiple text box and want to change a font or font color. But when I select multiple text boxes PowerBi is opening multiple formatting bar and I have to select same font for each formatting bar which is very time consuming. If have 20 text boxes which needs same formatting then powerbi should let me select multiple text box and only one foramting bar and not 20 at the same time. 

This seems to very basic thing that is not implemented yet.
Please see the isssue in the screenshot below.

Hi for a quick solution you can use button in place of TextBox, buttons do have all the functionality that a textbox have.

You can Select Multipe Buttons in the Selection Pane(using crtl+MouseClick) and do the formatting, it will reflect for all the selected buttons.
