Probably best to use the QtPyVCP dev channel. It's available via IRC, matrix, discord, gitter and probably others I'm forgetting. And many of the people that give feedback here are already in that channel, so makes it easier for everyone.


IRC: webchat.freenode.net/?channels=%23hazzy
Matrix: riot.im/app/#/room/#qtpyvcp:matrix.org
Gitter: gitter.im/kcjengr/qtpyvcp
Discord: discord.gg/463hMhd

Can I be picky?

I don't like the skuemorphic 7-segment numbers.
I think that properly-formed numbers are fractionally easier to read (especially in the conversational dialog boxes)

Can you suggest some monospace fonts?

I started with 7 segment fonts in my mind, that what most machinist are habitual to. I can be wrong, but I see more 7 seg displays than LCD's . On mill dro, Vfd, Temprature sensors or micrometers, calipers.

I think we can change fonts in fonts in Places other than THC voltage and DRO.

Moreover, community is over myself. If more people want that, we can change them from everywhere.

We can make everybody happy and define the fonts in a separate style sheet file. The font options can be predefined, and the user can comment/uncomment to set the preferred font.

Yes, but that is because that is all that they can do, because they really do have 7-segment displays.
