Re: [MlMt] fonts in 2.0 BETA
I thought I had a handle on the font settings, but after basically starting fresh for reasons no one cares about, I can’t get things to look “right”. I want to use a variable width font for * HTML messages where the sender didn’t explicitly choose a font * Markdown messages that are converted to HTML locally * The HTML preview in the composer window I want to use a fixed width font for * The editing area of the composer window * Plain text messages But from what I can tell, all of the above except the editing area share the same font. Is it possible to achieve what I want? Thanks. -- Rob McBroom http://www.skurfer.com/ ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

No, it is only applied to plain text messages (or when viewing the plain text body part of an HTML message). After more testing, maybe it’s just when viewing the HTML part of a multi-part message? For example, the message you sent takes on my chosen font (an I have other examples). I can live with that. The biggest problem was that nothing I did would affect the font used for plain-text mail, or the plain text part of a multi-part message. I finally just tried deleting `MmMessagesWebView/stylesheet.css` and now plain-text messages are using a fixed-width font again. I guess there’s no reason for that style sheet any more.

No, it is only applied to plain text messages (or when viewing the plain text body part of an HTML message). If I open a plain-text message, or one that’s converted to HTML via Markdown, the “theme for plain text emails” takes over and I get whatever font is defined there. Only if the theme specifies a specific font. *Currently*, the default theme(s) only specify `sans-serif` which I believe is sufficient to avoid some email clients to use an ugly default font (which is the only reason I'm specifying a font at all). If that’s true, it seems backwards to me. I would like to choose a font for plain text and locally rendered Markdown, and I would like HTML messages from others to appear exactly as sent. Is that possible? I think that's how it works now (if I haven't messed up something). -- Benny ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
