Hi,

According to the Settings -> Appearance the default app settings can be overridden by a them. But the latest beta (Version 3.0b30 (30)) seems to behave exactly the opposite way.

I have the following in the theme:

    default = {
        fontName = "Helvetica Neue";
        fontSize = 13.5;
        kerning = 0.3;
   };

but what I configure in the app is what is applied.

   `default` is not used for anything.

   Look at `New.theme` for an example of how to modify themes.

   Nice (that works as described). What I cannot get to work though is the monoFont settings:

   monoFontSize = 12;
   monoFontName = "Cousine";
   

   If I specify these in the corresponding codeSpan and codeBlock it works, but not as a top level theme setting.

   Again, look at the included themes for how to customize them. To my
   knowledge, every thing that can be done is done in one (or more) of the
   themes.

   Especially the 4 "New" variations.

   While the first part was inspired by the Default.theme which is included in the app (made me think that it should work), the part about the mono font was copied from New.theme in the Themes folder. So maybe you could take a look and double check that it works.

   OK. I got it to work. The part that was missing was adding mono = 1.
