font is cut off

[Quilford]

The lower part of a certain pixel font that I am using in Ren'Py is being cut off, like so:



Can I rectify this? How?

Changing line_spacing does nothing.

I have a similar problem but only with the latest version (before was working ok). If you want you can download renpy 6.12 and check if the same font works fine, in this case is a bug of the new renpy and you only need to wait for pytom to fix it

Have you tried also changing line_leading? Sometimes this happened in my game, but changing line_spacing helped... D:

If you can, please post the font you're using, so I can analyze it.

line_leading does something really weird in that the first line displays as in the screenshot above, but as the line below it rolls in (from slow_cps), the bottom half of the first line is revealed.

PyTom, did you get around to this?

[PyTom]

I did.

The problem is with the font. According to the font, it has a positive descender - which means that instead of descending below the baseline, characters like j and p end 7 pixels above it. That's nonsensical.

Since I don't think any real fonts would have this problem, I went ahead and added a check for this problem. This isn't a bug fix, but rather a kludge that improves compatibility. The upshot is that 6.13.1 will be able to read this, eventually.

It's the same also for my font? I don't think so since in previous version it was showing OK (so don't think is a problem with the font itself).

[PyTom]

jack, your font problem was an actual bug triggered by negative line_spacing. (In fact, several bugs.) Tonight's pre-release will have a fix for it.

Awesome job
