Is not.

Check line 137 on Dan's dejavu branch:
https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/blob/dejavu/tcl/pd-gui.tcl


If you want to see how does pdx font metrics looks on your Mac you must edit your local “pd-gui.tcl”

change line 137 to:

set font_metrics {
    5 11
    6 13
    7 16
    10 19
    14 29
    22 44
Restart Pd.

well, in the PR discussion, back in february, I did ask


will this branch also focus on geting the same metrics as Pd-Extended or not?

And Dan replied:

"Yes it does, it simply doesn't have that change applied yet. I'm not 100% convinced the smaller boxes make the most sense overall, maybe there are some tweaks needed as a couple patches I have seem too slim where the top of the text overlaps the object border. I'll dig that up later.

I'd like to get some feedback from @millerpuckette<https://github.com/millerpuckette> & @umlaeute<https://github.com/umlaeute> in regard to both font & metrics adjustment."


So I assumed it'd be working like that by now.


cheers

pdx metrics are not yet hardcoded, there must be a good argument for that to became meaningful.

what do you mean?

Support it by just testing and giving opinions. But modify that tcl please.

My opinion is that things should look the same, out of the box, on vanilla, pd extended, and purr data. In the verge of bringing cyclone to purr data, I hope the same documentation works in both, cause doing two of them would be insane.

Now, is there any need for further testing? Hasn't this been tested already?

cheers
