Change Waybar font

[tippunmon1953]

Is there an easy way please to change the font on Stephan’s Waybar in his dotfiles? I have adjusted the clock to my own preference, which includes seconds. I added “interval” : 1, to the config file but now the display jumps slightly when showing different digits, due to the differing character width. Wondering whether a monospaced font such as jetbrains mono nerd font would keep the clock display from “jumping”? Thanks for your time.

If you go to ~/dotfiles/.config/waybar/themes you should be able to see a list of directories there of all the themes available... if you cd into the theme you are using... in my case cd ml4w-modern you should be able to see a style.css there. You can add a font there in the font family (better if the font is installed on your system).

I am not sure about this but the order of the font could play a part in what loads first. So if you want to make sure that your custom font is loaded, then add it to the list first.
