Make regular text have font-weight of 100

How do I make the default text across all of LogSeq start with a font-weight of 100?

In the example below, I can make the headings all have font-weight of 100, but regular text seems to default to normal, no matter what code I add to the custom.css page.

I really like the Ubuntu font, and it looks even better with Ubuntu Light, but I cannot work out how to set the default text weight to not be 500.

:root {
  --ct-text-size: 16px;
  --ct-line-height: 1.5;
  --ls-font-family: "Ubuntu Nerd Font";
  --ls-font-weight: 100;
  --ct-page-title-font-family: var(--ls-font-family);
  --ct-code-font-family: "UbuntuMonoNerdFont";
}

/* header margin tweaks */
  font-weight: 100;

.ls-block p.normal {
  font-weight: 100;
}

.ls-block h1{
    font-size: 140%;
    font-weight: 100;
    margin: 4px 0px 4px;
}

.ls-block h2{
    font-size: 132%;
  font-weight: 100;
    margin-top: 4px;
}

.ls-block h3{
    font-size: 124%;
  font-weight: 100;
    margin-top: 2px;
}

.ls-block h4{
    font-size: 116%;
  font-weight: 100;
}

.ls-block h5{
    font-size: 108%;
  font-weight: 100;
}

.ls-block h6 {
    font-size: 100%;
  font-weight: 100;
}

Of course it happens that retrying Ubuntu Light for the umpteenth time only works after whining on a forum post…

But my question remains: is there a way to set the paragraph text to font-weight 100 when using a ‘normal’ font?

The “–ls-font-weight: 100” in the :root section appears to do nothing at all.

It’s not easy to say without looking in your system, but in my understanding:

  • normal/plain/regular weight is 400, not 500 (this should be medium)
  • regular text doesn’t go into p.normal , but to a variety of elements and classes
    • Try applying the weight to plain .ls-block instead.
