I guess you mean this https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/issues/1183 I
opened an issue but didn't discuss it through the end, but you guy did and
the issue was closed.

The issue now is a different one and it is that the display seems to be
different. Before, a font size of 12 did fit nicely, now it doesn't. At
least that's what I perceived, but I might be wrong and was actually
checking here. My concern is that maybe the rendering changed or something,
and when this issue came up here I thought I'd bring it up to see if there
could be a relation.

Here are some screenshots, left is 0.52-1, right is 0.52-2, left has font
size = 12, first we compare to the right with font size = 12, then font
size = 10.

Font = 12 looks quite bigger, Font = 10 looks too small.

Nonetheless, I have changed the text the 'else' binary shows to what seems
to look nice now and I just hope it looks the same on all platforms (I
can't check).

cheers
