Hello everyone. I found a problem with the alignment of curly braces. I didn’t find the same problem in the repository, read the file CONTRIBUTING.md and report the problem according to the points described there.

  • Please describe what led to the problem in detail.

This problem can be reproduce on windows 10 with 125% interface scaling.

I understand that these are not Core design target range and at the same time a rather narrow case, but the fact that this is reproduced only on the regular version of the font makes one think that it is possible to fix this not so difficult, so I decided to write about this problem anyway.

P.S. Thanks for the work you did to create this great font!

I downloaded another version of Hack from https://github.com/source-foundry/Hack/pull/427 and this issue has not been reproduced anymore. I think this problem can be closed after the next release.
