Font family stopped working after update.

[dhrivnak]

Type: Bug

I updated VSCode this morning, and my font family no longer works. I use "Source Code Pro Medium", and it has been working for months until this morning. If I change it to "Source Code Pro", that works, but I want the Medium weight.

Yeap - just updated and had the same issue.

[aecorredor]

For clarity, these are the settings I had relating to fonts/colors/tokens:

  "editor.fontFamily": "Operator Mono, Menlo, Monaco, 'Courier New', monospace",
  "editor.fontSize": 14,
  "editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
    "textMateRules": [
      {
        "scope": [
          "comment",
          "constant.language",
          "keyword.control",
          "keyword.operator.expression",
          "keyword.other",
          "keyword.operator.new",
          "variable.language",
          "entity.other.attribute-name",
          "storage"
        ],
        "settings": {
          "fontStyle": "italic"
        }
      },
      {
        "scope": [
          "storage.type.function.arrow"
        ],
        "settings": {
          "fontStyle": ""
        }
      }
    ]
  },

Here's my only font customization:

"editor.fontFamily": "Source Code Pro Medium, Menlo, monospace"

yep, went all bold for me!

[CameronSumpter]

This issue started happening for me this morning, also after updating to v1.90.0. It appears to be forcing use of bold in my case (with Operator Mono), as the dollar sign glyph in the font is different for bold than for all other weights and it appears that way regardless of how it’s configured.

Setting "editor.fontWeight": "normal" has no effect, although setting "editor.fontWeight": "bold" results in it applying faux bold to the already-bold weight being rendered.

Likewise, 1.90 made Operator Mono all bold for me. Changes to editor.fontWeight have no effect.
