First the running gag on isabelle-dev: the new ... or the latest ... is
ill-defined. You have to refer to *the* changeset of the repository version
you are presently testing.
Sorry, I'll keep that in mind.
Concerning Source Code Pro font: I tried it some weeks ago when there was
an announcement somewhere, but dismissed it rather quickly. On JVM/Linux its
rendering quality appeared quite weak, and too many of our standard Isabelle
symbols are missing.
I'm quite happy with the font on MacOS, and the missing symbols haven't been a
problem so far since I usually work in ML{* *}. By the way, the tooltips are
really a great help when programming!
(This can be checked by opening $ISABELLE_HOME_USER/etc/symbols with
UTF-8-Isabelle encoding.)
Ah, good to know!

It seems there is a little (but annoying) issue with the new tooltips in
Isabelle/jEdit when using a font other than IsabelleText. I'm using the
Source Code Pro font and the tooltips are always just a little too small so
that part of the text is hidden/cut off. Of course an easy fix would be to
go back to using IsabelleText...

Nonetheless, I can guess what you mean and to which version range it might
refer: something close to my own latest version of my laptop, which is
8b50286c36d3. (This reference here is important for the mail archive of the
list, because in some weeks or months nobody remembers what was current in
the past.)
These fine points of sizing the Rich_Text_Area are not fully worked out yet,
and the next release is still many weeks ahead.
I will take your observation is a slight increase of the priority to address
it before the release, but this is not sure since many really important
things still need to happen elsewhere.
