Monospaced Font Character Width / Draw.io Console API

[Henning Dieterichs]

Hello!

I want to create a diagram that shows a syntax tree above a source text. To do that, I need every character in the source text to have a certain width, preferrable a width that works well with the grid.

Sadly the following happens when I try to arrange the font size to the grid:

The font is both Courier New, in the first text block with a size of 16pt, in the second 17pt. As there are not font sizes in between, it seems I am out of luck.
What can I do to match the size of a character with the size of these small boxes the grid is made of?

My second approach would be to create a text element for each character so that I can arrange the characters individually. However I don't want to do that manually.

Is there a way to do this via the browsers dev console?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the report. We'll add support for text sizes with decimal points (eg. 16.5pt) in the next release.

Fixed in 5.4.4.4.
