Topic: Any way to set the browser line height? 8.2 made it worse - Page: 1

Dieser Teil des Themas ist veraltet und kann veraltete oder falsche Informationen enthalten

In 8.1 I have changed the default browser font in the skin to "Roboto" since this font leaves more space above and below the characters. To my eye this looks much easier to read that the tight default line height.

In 8.2 the line height is again cramped. Is there any way to allow more space between the lines? See the screenshots of 8.1 and 8.2.

In addition to my last post, I also noticed that when using other than the default font in the Skin, some letters are cut off, as the line height is too small. It happens especially with "g" or "p" or "q". See the screenshot (its enlarged to make it easier to see).

I wont move to 8.2 until this issue is resolved, as in 8.1. the browser is much better legible.

Change the default browser font to "Roboto"?

Dont exactly understand your question, but maybe I was not precise enough. Its not the default Skin, its the Swap 4 Decks skin where I changed the font to "Roboto". However I dont think it matters which skin you use, the cut off letters will remain as I did not find a way to set the browser line height in the Skin.

OK so changing the font gave you the spacing in 8.1 but using the same skin, with the same font, the spacing is not there in 8.2?

Exactly. In addition some letters are cut off, as I have shown above.

Is it related to this (see the thread)?

There's some information that might be useful.

Thank you for your try.

My issue is different though. The problem is not that the font is not displayed but that the line height cuts letters off.

Are you on MAC ?

I did try to replicate the issue. I even downloaded the Roboto font just to try.

Modified the 4 Deck Swap skin to use Roboto. Didn't have any problems.

Tried some other fonts too, even really weird ones. No luck.

I have previously reported the issue where font 'tails' are cut off, not only in the browser, but also on the deck itself.

I totally agree with the browser item 'height'. I'd love for the additional space since I do entirely agree that it does make it easier to read and more clean. (I would imagine that's an easy fix in the theme.)

This issue is still there in 3268. Fonts cut off due to the line height being to narrow.

The problem persists in 3291.

Problem is still there in build 3311.

I would appreciate a word by the developpers if this issue is recognized and will be addressed. If not I guess I will have to stay with 8.1 forever.

Thanks!

This is in the skin. I may try and take a crack and fixing this and providing the notes since it's an annoyance for me as well.
