Hi Alex,

What you built only changes Monaco for DejaVU. The font metrics in pd-gui.tcl 
are just vanilla.

If you want to test you can modify "pd-gui.tcl" to meet pdx metrics. If you do 
so you most likely get the same as Purr-data.

Just tweak the values on the .tcl file and restart pd.

The pdx values and the how-to are here:

So, i just built from https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/tree/dejavu and 
tested here on my mac. It looks good alright, seems to render better and stuff, 
but it isn't backwards compatible, seems to require more real estate for texts 
and all (object size and the like) - see attachment.

github.com
pure-data - Pure Data - tracking Miller's SourceForge git repository (also used 
by libpd)



So it doesn't really render the same as in purr data, like you say. That 
actually looks the same as the current pd state, as well as old pd extended.

As much as I like the idea of having a new cross platform bahaviour for pd, I 
was hoping it'd be the same as purr data and all... also that I wouldn't have 
to reformat over 300 help patches I'm working on, plus my tutorials which is 
quite numerous as well - not to mentio regular patches/abstractions.

cheers

Here Dan is saying he is becoming to like the font metrics thing:

@IOhannes:


>it seems that i remember dan (or was it miller) pointing to the newly

introduced zoom feature which complicates things a bit more. and dynamic

font managing. and what not. (probably check the archives)

the conclusion for me is: there *are* downsides.

The zoom feature will work with the correct doubles from pdx metrics, this are 
the actual doubles of vanilla:

set font_zoom2_metrics {
    12 20
    14 26
    18 32
    20 42
    30 50
    50 90
}

Does *downside* to you is having a little more white space?

Pdx font metrics wont break vanilla patches.
