Change proportional to tabular figures #23

Open pantonis opened 6 years ago

pantonis commented 6 years ago

I am using Poppins in my web app and I have numbers that refresh in real-time. Problem when I am using Poppins font is that number is keep getting resized based on the number digits. This is very irritating with no good UX. I have attached a moving gif that shows the problem. On the left I have Tahoma and on the right figure I have Poppins. Check the size of the figure on the right which is being getting resized all the time.

From what I was told in this thread 1421 Poppins don't have tabular figures but instead proportional.

Can you please change it and make it tabular please?

Thanks

I would really like to see this improvement.

I know this is an old and probably forgotten feature request, but here I am in 2023 still wanting poppins to have tabular figures. Since we already have proportional ones, I would not kill it, but only add the tabular ones. At the same time

I, too, would love to see this. I have switched our design to use Poppins but with the numbers, especially the 1s, being so small, it's really problematic for text that contains multiple numbers

Its 2024 and I am hoping this can still happen.

Agreed, great font but I don't want to add special css to substitute a monospace font everywhere a number shows up. Perhaps support font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums, so people who like it the way it is are happy, and the rest of us get what we need?
