Upgrading from Sublime Text 3143 to 3176 results in bold font










0














I have two installations of portable Sublime Text 3 on my computer: 3143 and 3176. I've ported all my settings, my theme, plugins over to 3176 and everything is perfect except for the default font being bold.



My settings have not changed.



"font_face": "Consolas",
"font_size": 11,


Inspecting my (custom) theme, nothing suggests it should be bold and that the new version would be sensitive to it.



Nothing in font_options seems to help either.



Old (happy):



Old



New (sad):



New

    If you use windows, you may want to check out this forum post; in a nutshell the font rendering engine was updated and now respects the windows ClearType settings better, which can cause issues like this,

As per the 3.1 changelog:




Improved text rendering on Windows, now respecting ClearType tuning




Go to Preferences -> Settings, then in your user settings add:



"font_options": ["dwrite_cleartype_classic"],
"theme_font_options": ["dwrite_cleartype_classic"],


If those don't work for you, use dwrite_cleartype_natural for each instead.



Still having trouble? Make sure font_face and font_size are as you expect; I had a lower font size for a computer with lower resolution.
