1. Click on the math region ... font from the menu
2. Click size from the menu ... as you wish otherwise than 10 default

Hello!
Thanks for the reply, but I meant changing the font itself, not its size.
Thanks.

The unique font style is "Courrier New" the most comfortable math font.
In Mathcad, Tom used Tahoma next acceptable.
Some Greek are not too nice in Courrier New.
Neat advantage Smath Courrier New: all work sheets are uniform.
So far more comfortable than Arial, Times New Roman ...

Long answer should mention that these settings are not tied to the worksheet, hence if for some reason you run the worksheet created with modified settings without these settings (worksheet shared, prop file lost/overwritten. ..) all your worksheet layouts will be messed up. Even, strings measuring with non monospaced fonts might cause rendering issues (text out of the region bounds, cursor not fitting the characters...) Rolleyes

Hi Davide. Thanks for clarifying those questions. I know how to start the long answer, but have not much idea about how this travel could be end.

Also I see that the Android version have another font default setting, which looks much more pretty than courier new font.

Best regards.
Alvaro.

Hello Everyone,

Thank you so much for the information.

Personally I believe that adding the option to change the font style would be good. One can argue that courier new is the best font ever created by humankind, but that discussion leads nowhere, as beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

This could be done per formula or as a system setting - as it already exists in the configs under the hood. Adding this information to the files itself wouldn't be too hard as the functionality to change fonts is already there.

Thanks a lot for everything, guys.

Personally => I reject that option, especially wrt Smath absolutely top for publishing.
Also, consider the legal aspect ... show something that you like so much.
On the other hand, Smath has the font size/color per math region.
