Once you see it...

[jbartlett]

... can you unsee it?

 

The lower-case t's aren't on the same baseline as the rest of the characters. (Caused by Nudista style font)

Huh?

I'm not seeing it.

[jbartlett]

Hrm. Must be a Dark Theme feature

 

[jbartlett]

Nope, not that. I still see it on the light theme. Must be a Firefox feature then! <shrug>

Edit: Chrome has it too. Your browser might not be using the Nudista font because it's in the font itself

Don't zoom it in so much  

[rmadden80]

Lol, now that you've pointed this out I can't un-see it myself. 😊  I'm running Chrome with the dark theme.

For what it's worth, I see it more when I zoom out and the t is then clearly being rendered strangely.  Having spent years overseeing the production of user manuals and the like where layout was important, this one would bug me like hell.  Fortunately at my normal zoom level in Chrome (100% on a 2560x1440 monitor) I am not noticing it at all.  If I go out to 75% zoom - yuck...

 

Edit: Damn!  I am now noticing it at 100% too...  🤪

I feel like I'm being gaslighted here. Can someone ELI5 what exactly you are talking about? Is it the couple of pixels space that appears under the t's on the screenshot @jbartlett posted? Because if that's the case, I'm not seeing it on any of my screens, which includes a wide mix of screen resolutions, OS types, and browsers. Everywhere I browse the forums looks perfectly fine to me.

FAAARRKKK I didn't see it at first, but now my eyes are on fire 🤣

[ChatNoir]

Damn you @jbartlett ! I see this everywhere now !    

 

I copied from Chrome 100% and pasted in Paint.net then zoomed in (900%) :

The grid helps seeing what is going on I think.

[ChatNoir]

This is also present with the light mode :

 

and also in the WYSIWYG editor !!!

The previous tests were made at work.

 

Now back at home (Chrome, 100% but on a 1440p display) everything works well ....

 

This is very strange. 🤪

Thanks! Now I know I'm not nuts. I was seriously doubting my sanity with all these posts saying it was messed up. Apparently it's not consistent or predictable yet.

It's a problem with the Google font https://fonts.adobe.com/fonts/nudista

 

Some versions of it has the lower t in the correct position, others do not. Luck of the draw.

 

I'm not lucky.

[ChatNoir]

I use the same software setup at home and at work.

I am not sure why it would behave differently or load a different version of the police.

 

Only difference would be

• my laptop vs my main rig
• the firewall at work ?
• the resolution (1080p vs 1440p)

[jbartlett]

Windows 10 Pro, x64/Firefox/1080p/100% zoom here, fracked T.

[ChatNoir]

Oh, didn't think of that, I am running W10Pro at work vs Home at home (yeah  ).

Not sure it is the issue.

 

I'll try to test it with the work laptop at home during the weekend.

I used Firefox's Inspect Element feature to take a look at the underlying CSS. I suspect

 

<style type="text/css">

.tk-nudista-web{font-family:"nudista-web",sans-serif;}.tk-fira-mono{font-family:"fira-mono",monospace;}

</style>

 

I figure that the ones who can't see the t issue is that their browser wasn't able to download the google font and was falling back on the sans-serif font.
