SCP can be somewhat odd for hex numbers with certain styles

[M4xxR5]

With certain font-size and font-weight combinations (12 pt and regular, for example) capital letters are bigger than integer digits, making hex numbers look weird.

@maxirios i understand what you are saying, but can you please provide some images for documentation sake? thanks.

@pauldhunt Here is a simple example:

The figure/digit height is lower than the cap height, which can cause hex numbers to look “bouncy”.

A solution is to provide another set of figures that have exactly the same height as the caps: zero.cap, one.cap, etc. These “cap figures” can be either (a) accessed via a new Stylistic Set, or (b) substituted automatically through Contextual Alternates.

FWIW, cap-height numbers are already supported in the case feature.

I can understand the global activation of this feature in a code editor might just be too much, but at least the number requested do exist.
