Impressive work!

Minor nit: why does the rendered in-window text use a really awful pixelated font? It looks like what happens when a font gets rendered onto a pixel grid without any hinting or snapping.

It uses GNU unifont, which is a bitmap font. There could be a bug causing the text to get stretched a little - we had that on Windows prior to this release.

It uses exactly the same font in the desktop version, and is probably entirely intentional.

Intentional indeed. It is GNU Unifont - a 973KiB file that covers practically all of Unicode. In a bitmap font, platform independent, self contained, small. Practically all that SolveSpace strives to be.

Perhaps I've been using computers for too long but I actually like the non anti-aliased "sharp" and "pixely" look :-)

I assumed it likely looked like the desktop version, and that was exactly what was motivating my question.
