Change Sublime Text 2 Font Weight

Question

The normal font-weight in Sublime Text was always bold.

Now it is really thin and i cant work with that. Can I change it back to what it was before ?

I have not changed anything, it just changed after i rebooted my macbook.

Thanks, Mottenmann

Answer 1

Same thing happened to me. Sublime Text 2 suddenly changed to having a super thin font on my Mac.

Add

Mac:

"font_options":["no_round"], 

PC:

"font_options":["bold"], 

to

Answer 2

A simpler approach would be to simply add the weight name to the font_face (ie for medium use "Medium", for light use "Light", etc)

Before:

{
    "font_face": "Source Code Pro",
    "font_size": 16.0,
}

After:

{
    "font_face": "Source Code Pro Light",
    "font_size": 16.0,
}

The font "Source Code" comes in ExtraLight, Light, Medium, Regular, etc. And if you want use the Light version, appending the font-weight along with the font_face will work.

p.s. try Source Code Pro or Inconsolata. They are the best coding fonts till date.
