Qt5 applications use the Thin style as the default style #240

Closed epico closed 1 year ago

epico commented 1 year ago

Recently we changed to the Noto Sans CJK VF fonts in Fedora Linux 38.

We noticed that the first style in the Noto CJK Sans VF font is "Thin" not "Regular", unlike the core Noto Sans VF fonts. It seems core Noto Sans VF fonts use "Regular" style as the first font style.

The Qt5 applications start to use the "Thin" style from Noto CJK Sans VF fonts for the Regular style, as the "Thin" style is the first style in the Noto CJK Sans VF font.

Is it possible to change the Regular style to the first font style in Noto Sans CJK VF and Noto Serif CJK VF fonts?

No, the default has to be either the lightest or heaviest weight in the current setup. If we made Regular the default then the file size would become much larger.

Thanks for the information!
