OK, I recall having the problem with Monaco 9 rendering incorrectly
in Xcode source files a while back. I must've done something to
correct the problem. But now that I got my new Mac Pro and have
added NO new fonts to it, Xcode is again using some horrible
kerning or something with Monaco 9. My system pref is set to turn
off text smoothing for font sizes 4 and smaller. I tried changing
it to 10 and smaller, but that didn't affect Xcode's display at all
(even after quitting and relaunching). I've also tried setting the
Xcode pref to 9.1pt or 8.5pt. Both appear to round the size to 9pt.
9.5 works, but reading 9.5pt Monaco in source files is just sick
and wrong. :) It's too large.
When will this be fixed? How can I workaround the problem without
changing fonts? Monaco 9 has rendered *perfectly* for, what, 20
years before it started having problems in Xcode. Why the problem
in Xcode. Works great in Mail..
Have you tried rebooting? We've seen a problem here where the system
font cache becomes gradually more corrupted for Monaco in Xcode, with
an increasing number of characters rendering incorrectly. Rebooting
seems to cure it.
