Cursive s and f #130

Open brainlessbitch opened 1 year ago

brainlessbitch commented 1 year ago

Would you consider changing the s and f so they're more like proper cursive characters?

subframe7536 commented 1 year ago

what is "proper cursive characters"?

brainlessbitch commented 1 year ago

these kinda characters image image

sonulohani commented 1 year ago

These are script variants. Check monolisa.dev for more info on how they have a script variant of font other than italics.

brainlessbitch commented 1 year ago

they're still cursive lol

subframe7536 commented 1 year ago

imo, considering readability, adding these two variants is not a favorable choice.

brainlessbitch commented 1 year ago

i guess that makes sense, but the s and f look really out of place

subframe7536 commented 1 year ago

i agree with "s". it is a personal weird choose of my experimentation with multiple variants, filtered and tested in the vscode and idea, to just make it "cursive"

subframe7536 commented 1 year ago

but "f" is a normal varient in various of coding fonts

brainlessbitch commented 1 year ago

none with cursive italics tho, look at victor, or operator, and some others lol

subframe7536 commented 1 year ago

yeah, what i made is more like: it is good and then it is mine, regardless what style it is

brainlessbitch commented 1 year ago

fair enough, i honestly love this font

brainlessbitch commented 1 year ago

i wish i was better with vector stuf so i could mod it myself, but i'm more good at the coding part lol

subframe7536 commented 1 year ago

in v7 i will upload the font design project file. maybe .glyphs or .vfc, so you can edit it your self

Maybe you can add Victor Mono cursive parts later.

subframe7536 commented 7 months ago

in V7, the italic style will be more restrained to achieve a balance of smooth and simplicity.

Only about 20% of lowercase characters will be in cursive style.
