+# Custom CSS properties
+
+Customize the appearance of the Rich Text Editor with custom CSS properties.
+
+You can customize the appearance of the Rich Text Editor using CSS properties by defining them in your CSS files.
+
+For example, to set the minimum height of all Rich Text Editors throughout the backoffice. You could use the following CSS rule:
+
+```css
+:root {
+    --umb-rte-min-height: 300px;
+}
+```
+
+For general information on working with stylesheets and JavaScript in Umbraco, check [Stylesheets and JavaScript](../../../../design/stylesheets-javascript.md).
+
+If you wanted to target a specific Rich Text Editor, you can set the [stylesheet directly in the configuration](configuration.md#stylesheets).
+
+
+## Custom CSS properties reference
+
+The following CSS properties are available for customization:
+
+| CSS Property           | Description                                | Default Value |
+| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------ | ------------- |
+| `--umb-rte-width`      | The width of the rich-text-editor          | `unset`       |
+| `--umb-rte-min-width`  | The minimum width of the rich-text-editor  | `unset`       |
+| `--umb-rte-max-width`  | The maximum width of the rich-text-editor  | `100%`        |
+| `--umb-rte-height`     | The height of the rich-text-editor         | `100%`        |
+| `--umb-rte-min-height` | The minimum height of the rich-text-editor | `100%`        |
+| `--umb-rte-max-height` | The maximum height of the rich-text-editor | `100%`        |
+
+
+The CSS custom properties may change in future versions of Umbraco. You can always find the latest values in the [Rich Text Editor component base class](https://github.com/umbraco/Umbraco-CMS/blob/main/src/Umbraco.Web.UI.Client/src/packages/rte/components/rte-base.element.ts) in the Umbraco CMS GitHub repository.
