Using a Pixel Font in Chatter or Prat

Post by Arcolite

I've search high and low for the answer to this and so far I've come up with nothing.

I've seen many people use Pixel Fonts for their chat font and it looks lovely.

However when I try it with either Prat or Chatter the lines kind of overlap and it's very unreadable.

Neither of these addons seem to have a Line Height or Line Spacing option! Or if they do I can't find it.

Any suggestions?

Outlining does help but the line still overlap somewhat. If there was a slider o increase the gap between kinds then it would look perfect.

You are going to need to look for pixel fonts with a wider native leading (line spacing).

Because pixel fonts (for the most part) are designed as display fonts and not body text fonts, they don't usually come with wider leading because it isn't needed.

You can probably change the line spacing via .lua editing or go though more pixels fonts until you find one with a native leading that meets your needs.

Ah that makes sense. Thanks.
