Contextual alternative for 'x' causes visual inconsistency in hexadecimal numbers #7

Open JustasMasiulis opened 3 years ago

JustasMasiulis commented 3 years ago

Many languages use 0x prefix to express hexadecimal numbers; because both a letter and a number can follow after, it causes a bit of inconsistency. small example of this behaviour in Visual Studio

I have no idea how fonts work and quick googling didn't really help too much in figuring out how to change default font features on my OS (windows), but it would be lovely if this could somehow be changed.

Thank you for reporting. This is a bug due to a misbehaviour of semi-smartness where the font tries to swap the x with the multiply symbol if it’s between numbers (for better looking math settings), however this is silly in some cases as yours so
