I have this setting in my init file: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (when (window-system) (custom-set-variables '(modus-themes-slanted-constructs t) '(modus-themes-bold-constructs nil)) (load-theme 'modus-operandi)) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- After upgrade the new version of modus-themes is merged on master, I get the view attached as ‘emacs_1.png’. If I comment-out the above lines in init file and then ‘M-x load-theme RET modus-operandi RET’ after the startup, I get the view as in ‘emacs_2.png’. Notice the font difference. And this difference is causing problems in other areas. Like Gnus group buffer; the lines are not aligned properly. Sorry for the image attachments.
