A panel that opens from a button, like Text Settings, takes the focus. Tab and the arrows move around inside it, Esc closes it and puts you back on the button you opened it from. After you use something in the panel the focus stays where you used it, so you can apply another size or colour straight away.

Your text stays selected the whole time, so bold, a link, a size or an alignment applies to what you had selected. Coming back to your text leaves the selection as you left it.
