Hi guys,
First of all I want to thank you for the great product. We use it every day and we are happy with it.
The only small issue which we have is the main font of the application. Personally I found it very difficult to read:

It will be really great if you change it or allow users to customize it. Or may be even support themes (fonts / colors) per user.
Thank you in advance,
Dan Pristupov
Hi Dan,
The issue with allowing users to change font is that we would need to ensure that alignments and layouts do not change. We may allow this eventually, but this is not a priority - we have a lot of great new features on our to-do list which we would like to implement first.
The font stack we use is
font-family: Frutiger, ‘Frutiger Linotype’, Univers, Calibri, ‘Gill Sans’, ‘Gill Sans MT’, ‘Myriad Pro’, Myriad, ‘DejaVu Sans Condensed’, ‘Liberation Sans’, ‘Nimbus Sans L’, Tahoma, Geneva, ‘Helvetica Neue’, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;Which font gets used depends on what is installed on your operating system. Using Chrome on default install of Windows, this comes out as Calibri - which we like. Out of interest, which font would you prefer?
Hi Dave,
Sorry for the delay.
Thank you for your answer.
Yes, you’re absolutely right. I opened Continua in Windows and fonts look absolutely perfect. So, the Frutiger font is used only in OS X. Is that correct that you use different fonts in different systems? Not sure, which font I’d like to see, but I think any standard one (like Helvetica or Tahoma) will look fine.
Regards,
Dan
Hi Dan,
The font is selected from the available fonts on the computer in the order they appear in the font stack. We’ll have a look at this on OS-X next week and discuss with the team if we should make any changes.
