Need a variety of font sizes

[griffinmt]

Using the current version of TFT_eSPI (2.4.79) with my ILI9488 and ESP32 on Arduino ide V1.8.18
My problem is that using the font sizes set at 1 or 2 or 3 doesnt give me what I need in all cases. Logically I need sizes that would be the equivilent of 1.8 and 2.5. How do I acheive this without major code changes to the library code.
TIA
Martyn

It is not clear which font you mean. Only integer size multipliers are possible with the built-in fonts. The library supports quite a few font formats that provide different font styles and sizes. Users can also create fonts for the "Free font" and "Smooth font" formats supported. There are examples included with the library for these.

This library extension provides access to more than 3000 font files of various styles and sizes, so that may be suitable.

The "ultimate" font type for resizng is the Truetype, this requires the OpenFontRender library. However the print placement options are limited at the moment.

Thanks for your answer. I guess i need to do a lot more digging 😏.

OK, I see I misses a hyperlink above. Should have been:
