Twenty Twenty: button block does not act on appearance change.

[himshekhar07]

Steps to reproduce the issue:-

1. Activate Twenty Twenty theme.
2. Choose a button block.
3. Change appearance to bold, semibold or anyone.

You can be able to see any changes in the letter.

I have attached a video for better understanding.

I can confirm hitting the same issue if Theme 2020 is active.

I also ran some more tests on other themes and here are the results:

• 2020 - Issue with appearance, Lettercase, letter spacing (also raised under https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/58024)
• 2021 - Issue with appearance and line height
• 2022 and 2023 - No issues encountered

Tested on
Chrome (Version 111.0.5563.146 (Official Build) (x86_64))
Mac OS Monterey 12.6.3
WordPress version 6.1.1
PHP 7.4

This is happening for me when creating blank theme with "Create Block Theme" plugin, so I don't think it's limited to Twenty Twenty theme.

Depending on the theme there are a number of settings across blocks might not be supported if came into effect after the theme. This could be the theme itself counters or overrules them in it's styling or that it just doesn't work with the new block settings.

I can confirm that today, Twenty Twenty doesn't work for font weight changes on button block. If this ticket is to solve that then I will change the title to focus there a patch. Thanks everyone.
