Pacenote v0.5.27

Sharper text

• SF Pro and Pretendard. Host Grotesk, set in v0.5.26, blurred at the 11 to 14px most screens are made of on a 1x display, where macOS does not hint fonts. SF Pro has shapes drawn for small sizes and sits beside Pretendard's Hangul without resizing either, so a line that mixes Korean and English reads evenly. The app is lighter too: it no longer bundles a Latin font.
• macOS's own smoothing. Text keeps the stem darkening macOS gives it, instead of the thinner antialiased strokes.
• Captions hold their weight. The 11px text of counts, pills and the status bar is medium everywhere, never regular.

One set of type roles

• Text takes a role, not a size: number, title, heading, section, row, copy, body, meta and caption. Each carries its size, line height, tracking and weight, so a row title or a meta line looks the same on every screen. The sizes are the ones the screens were laid out on, so nothing moves.
• Figures line up. Overview's totals use tabular figures.

Colors and surfaces

• Darker greens where text sits on a selected row. The primary green and the running and succeeded colors darken a step in light mode, so they read at 4.5:1 or more on a selected row too. Dark mode is unchanged.
• Icons in the brand green. Overview's and a collection's section icons, too faint in the chart green, take the primary green; the chart green stays on bars.
• Fewer corners and shadows. Small chips round at 6px and setup cards at 14px, like the rest, and menus, tooltips and dialogs share one shadow.

Also

• pacenote.dev uses the same pair of typefaces, and loads no font of its own.
