2.1.2 — Automatic font-weight detection

What's new

Automatic font-weight detection

Newly added fonts now enable only the weights they actually ship, instead of
all nine weights (100–900) being checked by default:

• Uploaded font kits read weights from their parsed (or generated)
  @font-face rules — including font-only ZIPs like Google Fonts downloads.
• Adobe Fonts read weights from the kit stylesheet, fetched server-side
  when the project is added.
• WordPress Font Library fonts adopted from the editor picker carry
  their real weights too.
• Variable fonts covering the full 100–900 range keep all weights enabled
  (the weight slider replaces the dropdown anyway).

Detection only ever narrows when it is confident — if a stylesheet can't be
fetched or a kit can't be read, all weights stay enabled — and the
checkboxes remain fully editable.

One-click detection for existing fonts

A new "Auto-detect weights for existing fonts" button on the Custom
Fonts tab covers fonts added before this release. It appears only when
undetected fonts exist, processes uploaded and Adobe fonts in one pass, and
disappears once every font is covered. (Manual font definitions are skipped
— there is no font file to read.)

Fixed

• Variable fonts uploaded as font-only ZIPs now glyph-browse correctly in
  the Glyphs Panel — the generated format('truetype-variations') hint
  wasn't recognized by the panel's file picker.
