VS Code doesn't recognizes Fira Code (duplicating #889) #1116

I installed FiraCode-VF.ttf version 5.2. My system is Windows 10.

Font settings in my VSCode are as follows: (deleted settings.json in workspace folder)

    "editor.fontFamily": "Fira Code",
    "editor.fontLigatures": true

I also tried

    "editor.fontFamily": "'Fira Code'",
    "editor.fontLigatures": true

    "editor.fontFamily": "Fira Code Bold",
    "editor.fontLigatures": true

etc. and restarted VSCode and my system again and again. It just doesn't work.

Please help me!

Try using non-VF version? Most programs do not support it properly. I am not sure if that’s of VS Code / Windows, but it might be

@tonsky VS Code supports variable fonts. Just tried it with only VF installed using 5.2 on VS Code 1.48 on Windows 10

"Fira Code" - Shows Fira Code
"Fira Code Light" - Shows Fira Code Light
"Fira Code Regular" - Shows Fira Code Regular
"Fira Code Medium" - Shows Fira Code Medium
"Fira Code SemiBold" - Shows Fira Code SemiBold
"Fira Code Bold" - Does not display Fira Code, uses fallback font
"Fira Code Retina" - Does not display Fira Code, uses fallback font

All six weights display in Windows' font settings and point to FiraCode-VF.ttf

@wopian My VSCode font settings does't appear like that of yours. I have to guess the font name and fill it by hand, which also confuses me.

@cangyin
Your VScode Font family setting is wrong! Is "'Fira code',Consolas...",have a space...so need single quotes.

cangyin commented 4 years ago

@Boolean-ball I tried with single quote, and it doesn't work.

wopian commented 4 years ago

@cangyin that's the Windows 10 font settings screen for Fira Code.

@Hocnonsense thanks man its working now

I just had to reload vscode. With "Fira Code" in the settings GUI. No quotes.

mattdeann commented 3 years ago

DId you open the ttf folder and install the fonts?

cangyin commented 3 years ago

@mattdeann Yeah! It works now. I installed all .ttf files in ttf folder (as before I just installed the .ttf in variable-ttf folder). But I don't know why this is the solution.

"editor.fontLigatures": true, worked for me
