It looks like a bug. The font size becomes active when the Working Units are set to to some form of Metric, but is inactive when using Imperial Units.

Odd it is working for me (version 22).
Yes it is in mm but I don't use points anyway.

If you don't override any of the lines, can you edit in the main 'Marker Text Style' section - this all becomes un-editable when a line override is chosen

Hello,

David is right, this is a bug (fix #254885). I let the developers know, and they will fix it as soon as possible.
