firacodeiscript's Issues

Update new Fira Code version

Hello, I love your library but it not support '>=' and '<=' :(

Don't work under linux.

On Ubuntu 16.04 Fira Code iScript Italic looks the same like base Fira Code Italic :(

SourceCodePro + iScript

Hey, this font looks really cool but I'm not a fan of FiraCode. Can you make one with SourceCodePro + iScript or add a how-to section so anyone can mash up 2 fonts of their choice?

SourceCodePro does allow modification

OSX Tells me to not install this

Font not working in Android Studio

Error

I was able to set the font in all the IDEs by JetBrains like RubyMine, WebStorm, IntelliJ IDEA, GoLand etc. But, now, I can't install both regular and italics font at the same time. I tried installing all the three together. But only bold and italics showed up. When I deleted the font family, Regular showed up. It is neither visible as a separate font nor inside the font family. It is either Italics or Regular. Not both. I installed them separately both for "Only me" as well as for "All users" but neither worked. I tried it several times.

Question

What software did you use to merge two fonts into one?

Thanks :-)

consider removing =< ligature

=< currently displays with the ≤ glyph. I would expect this for <=, but for =< I would prefer this to display as the two separate glyphs =< with no ligature. I suspect many other Python programmers feel the same way, since the characters =< frequently appear in __repr__ strings that have nothing to do with <= comparison, e.g.:

>>> from collections import namedtuple
>>> Foo = namedtuple('Foo', 'bar')
>>> Foo(bar=object())
Foo(bar=<object object at 0x1071b7ef0>)

The current behavior results in Foo(bar≤object object at 0x107...>) being shown, which is actually misleading.

I'm guessing Python isn't the only context where the =< substring means something very different from <=.

Would you consider removing the =< → ≤ ligature?

Thanks for your consideration and for sharing this wonderful font! <333

Italics breaks character fixed-width

Like in the topic, using this font breaks a little bit spacing.
Italics are narrower than regular characters.

Use new Fira Code version 1.205

Fira Code was released in version 1.205. The font has to be updated to use the newest version.

What is the theme name?

Can I please know what's the theme name used in the Screenshots?

Request to include your 'mash-up' in Nerd Fonts

Hey @kencrocken this was a very cool idea as a free alternative to Operator Mono.

Would you mind if we include your "mash-up" font in Nerd Fonts at some point?

Docs for different editors

Hi!

First thanks for the font, it's awesome, I've been using it for about a year now and love it.

I think, you should write more documentation on how to install it in our editors, since it requires a bit of configuration when you don't use a theme that supports italic font style.

By the way, I've written an article about it yesterday (where I mention your pseudonym, but I can delete it if you want). It's written in french but I could make a pull request to your project with a little extra documentation for installation in VSCode in english.

Thank you
Benjamin

Bold Version

How can I use the Bold Version ?

Or is it not possible to use?

Not working with Sublime Text 3 (build 3176)

I have installed the font in the system. I am using ubuntu 18.04. It is working in absolutely fine in my terminal window. But when I try to use it in sublime it doesn't reflect there. Below are my settings:

"color_scheme": "Packages/Material Theme/schemes/Material-Theme.tmTheme",
"font_face": "Fira Code iScript",
"font_options": [
	"gray_antialias",
	"subpixel_antialias"
],
"font_size": 11

I am using material theme dark variant.

I love this font and would like to make it work on my editor. Any help is appreciated.

Font has not been offered in Php Storm

Seems like php storm theme editor does not see Fire Code iScript, only regular Fire Code fonts.
Is that known issue?

Fix `fsSelection` field to determine style in JDK applications (eg. Intellij family)

Related: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/JBR-1776?p=WI-48310

JDK uses fsSelection field from OS/2 OpenType subtable in font file (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/os2#fsselection) to determine font style. For FiraCodeiScript-Italic.ttf font this field's value (0x40) corresponds to a regular (non-italic) font.

Name table seems broken in Windows 10

Thank you for this cool font! Unfortunately I cannot get it to work properly with Windows 10 and IntelliJ.

Have a look at the following comment:
source-foundry/Hack#50 (comment)

I experience a similar problem with the FiraCodeiScript font in Windows 10. Windows recognizes the regular and the bold version and places them in the same family. However, the italic font is not recognized as part of the family. It does not appear in the Windows font folder until I delete the other two family members (which are properly grouped together).

While some programs (e.g. Adobe Illustrator) properly utilizes the italic version of the font anyway, unfortunately, IntelliJ IDEA (and likely other JetBrain IDEs) do not.

This issue can probably be fixed by adjusting the name table and the font names.

fix italic font size
