Default Font Changed?

[unfriendlydevice]

After updating to the latest release of MM the default font seems to have changed and is taking up more room than the old font, I see the font source was changed but no mention of any change of the default font. I’ve not got any custom fonts specified in my custom.css. here’s a screenshot of how my MM looks now.

@unfriendlydevice do you know what release you were on before?

[unfriendlydevice]

@sdetweil I believe I was on the previous version as I update when notified by the system, the last update notification said I was 136 commits behind the master.

@unfriendlydevice did u update manually or with my script?

there was a css change a few releases ago that had similar effects which is why I was asking

my script creates a log file of the upgrade which would tell versions…

[unfriendlydevice]

@sdetweil I use the update function within MMM-Remote-Control, I expect this is the equivalent to a manual update.

@unfriendlydevice thanks…

what part is taking more room… I don’t see anything looking out of place…

[unfriendlydevice]

@sdetweil It appears there is more space between the characters than the previous font and to me looks less neat and causes the Gmail module to overlap the clock when an email with a long subject is present. If this is the current look I guess I will have to experiment with setting custom fonts.

@unfriendlydevice I’m not aware of any explicit font size changes , but we did move to fontawesome 6.1.1

also see
~/MagicMirror/fonts/roboto.css

which changed a bunch of different fonts

@sdetweil Thanks for the advice, I’ll mark this as solved.

@unfriendlydevice

the font looks wrong to me

I use the update function within MMM-Remote-Control

may this is not sufficient or something went wrong.

You could try

• goto ~/MagicMirror/fonts folder
• delete node_modules folder with rm -rf ./node_modules
• run npm install
