Default UIFont size and weight but also support preferredFontForTextStyle

If I have my own group of UIFonts with different sizes and weights, for example:



let customFont03 = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 40, weight: .thin)


How can I support Dynamic Type while still preserving my custom size and weight as a default standard and scaling that depending on how the user selects accessibility sizes?



I'm not sure that preferredFont(forTextStyle:) is what I want because it only accepts a UIFont.TextStyle and I don't want to lock customFont03 in as a .body or .headline etc...

  • What traits do you want to keep from the preferredFont and what traits do you want to override with your own setup?

  • I want size 40 and weight thin to be the default, but if the user changes the settings to anything other than the default the weight and size will scale appropriately.

The default standard text style is .body so, if you want to preserve your custom size as the default standard while supporting the Dynamic Type, you should define and adapt the keys fontName and fontSize to your custom size in a style dictionary.



Using the Dynamic Type means using the text styles. If you want specific font, you must define it in a native text style so that it's perfectly and automatically handled by the system.

            Can a sorcerer learn a 5th-level spell early by creating spell slots using the Font of Magic feature?

            Image
            28 6 $begingroup$ Per the Font of Magic feature, sorcerer can use Flexible Casting to create 5th-level spell slots at level 7, even though they are not typically available until level 9. You can transform unexpended sorcery points into one spell slot as a bonus action on your turn. The Creating Spell Slots table shows the cost of creating a spell slot of [5th level is 7] If such a sorcerer levels up while still having this 5th-level spell slot, can they choose a 5th-level spell as the spell they gain upon levelling up? The Spellcasting feature states: Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the sorcerer spells you know and replace it with another spell from the sorcerer spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

            Does disintegrating a polymorphed enemy still kill it after the 2018 errata?

            Image
            up vote 13 down vote favorite 1 After the 2018 errata, the disintegrate spell description now reads: A creature targeted by this spell must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 10d6 + 40 force damage. The target is disintegrated if this damage leaves it with 0 hit points. If you were to polymorph an enemy into a rat and then disintegrate it, would the enemy be disintegrated or would it just return to its original form? I know that for Druids, it’s not an instant kill anymore, but is this the case for polymorph as well? dnd-5e spells polymorph errata share | improve this question edited 18 hours ago

            A Topological Invariant for $pi_3(U(n))$

            Image
            3 3 $begingroup$ Recently, I saw a construction of topological invariant for $pi_3(U(n))$ with $ngeq 2$ : $$ N=frac{1}{24pi^2}int_{S^3} d^3x epsilon^{ijk} Tr[(U^{-1}partial_{x_i}U)(U^{-1}partial_{x_j}U)(U^{-1}partial_{x_k}U)] , $$ where $Uin U(n)$ depends on $boldsymbol{x}=(x_1,x_2,x_3)in S^3$ , $epsilon^{ijk}$ is the Levi-Civita symbol, $i,j,k=1,2,3$ , and the duplicated indexes are summed over. It is claimed that $N$ is an integer, but why? Update 02/02/2019 I think I got an argument for $n=2$ . In this case, $U=e^{i varphi} q$ with $qin SU(2)$ . Due to the trace and the Levi-Civita symbol in $N$ , $varphi$ does not contribute to $N$ . As $Tr[q^{dagger}partial_i q]=0$ and $(q^{dagger}partial_i q)^{dagger}=-q^{dagger}partial_i q$ , $q^{dagger}partial_i q$ in geneeral has the form $q^{dagger}partia
