New Default Code Font in Studio - Fira Mono

As mentioned here,

the people above are incorrect. The actual font for the output was source sans pro, with a size of 9. This just goes to show how quickly and thoroughly misinformation can spread.

ik there an option, obviously, but old one doesn’t look the same anymore… :confused:
and, I preferred the old one so…

lol so which it the old one then, because ā€œCourier Newā€ does not look like it whatsoever…

I would use this only if you also added a space between lines option. Lines are so close with this one.
Also output font’s letters are so separate, I wish that was controlled too.

What is the default settings/ I don’t like this.

This doesn’t look right :confused:

Will this change of the default font also affect the Code font for in-game text (TextLabels)?

If it does, I’ll have to change the font of all in-game text in a game I’m making to keep the same feel. I don’t want to say any more about it than a cartoony font will be absolutely disgusting in a game like mine. I don’t want to give away any more spoilers!

Source Sans pro font size nine

Small suggestion: Can you show zoom level in script editor?
Sometimes it resets and it’s difficult to know how far you had zoomed in the text editor before, and then it all just feels wierd.

It’d be nice if I could see in the corner that I have 80% zoom etc.

AH, thank you! i misread my own code fairly often especially with l1 O0 so this is gonna help a lot

The new font looks good. It definitely helps me distinguish between commas, periods, colons, and semi-colons better than the old font.

This feature made me remember that you could actually change the default font for some of studio’s things so… I present to you:

Scripting in the 1700s

In all seriousness, I do like the idea of being able to distinguish between 2 different characters more easily (like 1 and lowercase L) - though I’m gonna pass since I like New Courier better. :+1:

I have a 4k screen, and I would probably appreciate the font if Roblox actually rendered 4k properly. It just looks like pixelated nonsense to me right now. Definitely switching back to Courier New.

This is not a good update. It’s unnecessary and makes the code look ugly and crowded.

I was first shocked thinking that my account got hacked and someone changed the font. After going through almost every font I found that it was Courier New earlier, I changed it back. I’d actually prefer Courier New instead of Fira Mono for scripting, I don’t like that font, am just too much used to Courier New. Just my opinion.

How can I change the output font? Can’t seem to find it.

Don’t really like it. I will be changing it, but thanks for the efforts! I think Fira Code will look better.

I overrode my font a while ago so, this change doesn’t affect me that much.

However, this is really weird.

VSCode has it to this when using Python:

I’d prefer it to be the same color but, not bolded.

I personally think that this just makes my output look more cluttered. (I use custom script editor colors so that part doesn’t affect (effect?) me.) For some reason, the letters/numbers are both fairly wide and have a large amount of space between them. I would change it back to the old font for the output, but I don’t know how. I can’t even figure out how to turn on Dark mode for studio… Just for my scripts haha.

Just found this thread, didn’t even know it was changed.

I got this weird visual bug with the font too.
