Disable bold fonts #449

Closed mdcclxv closed 3 years ago

Any way to disable bold fonts? Gnome terminal removed that option and I can't seem to find it in your app either.

You can disable a particular bold font, for example Ubuntu Mono, by creating file ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf with contents:

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'>
<fontconfig>
<match target="pattern">
    <test qual="any" name="family">
        <string>Ubuntu Mono</string>
    </test>
    <test name="weight" compare="more">
        <const>medium</const>
    </test>
    <edit name="weight" mode="assign" binding="same">
        <const>medium</const>
    </edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>

However, this will disable bold version of the font from all apps!

Noooope, that's an ugly workaround, this should be an option in your terminal's settings. PuTTY allows that, for example.

Outside of my controll, since VTE removed support for it. Please ask this on the libvte project. If VTE supports it again, we can add it back to tilda.
