Feature Request - Custom Fonts per screen #87

Closed scarolan closed 1 year ago

scarolan commented 1 year ago

Some screens benefit from a tiny font. For example when you want to display a 5-digit number.

Other screens only need 3-4 digits (temperature, humidity, etc) and look nice with a larger font.

This FR is to allow an optional screen_font: that would override the default font.

Well, i thought about this but first only for the clock. For the clock you need a font with numbers at 6 pixels high. For normal screen 7 to 8 pixels are also fine.

I will consider this in an upcoming release!

I think the x/y offset setting should also be configurable or maybe even a subkey of the font. Thanks for your hard work on this, the results are amazing, so easy to configure from home assistant.

in the upcoming 2023.5.0 will be two fonts e.g. one with 6 pixel height (for date and time) and a font 8 pixel heigh for the rest. its working in the alpha version.
