add Particle font #1745

Closed dansimco closed 9 months ago

dansimco commented 10 months ago

This pr adds in a font I've created for compact norns ui. Discussed on the study group discord here

important

I've added this font in to the list in it's alphabetically sorted position, which makes it font_face(3) this is potentially a breaking change for scripts which had used Roboto-Thin, which would now be font_face(4) and so on down the line. It might be better to add new fonts like this to the end of the list, though that would break the alpha sorting.

specimen

The font itself is open source and licensed under SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE for collaboration.

Yeah, for backward compatibility I think it shouldn't be font_face(3).

tehn commented 10 months ago

i do think we need to change this so that the index is at the end as to not break compatibility. in the end, it's just the code that sees the alphabetization.

separately, we should add a lookup table from lua so we could do font_face('particle') etc!

this font looks so good!!

Thanks! I'm happier with the result of appending it to end of the list and later adding a name lookup. I have some other display styles I'm working on which felt like they shouldn't be earlier in the list just because they were there alphabetically. I'll adjust and push an update to this branch.

Ok PR updated. Particle is now font_face(68) . I'll be away from home for a couple of weeks, I can make changes via github ui but wont be able to test until ~12/17
