So, i just built from https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/tree/dejavu and tested here on my mac. It looks good alright, seems to render better and stuff, but it isn't backwards compatible, seems to require more real estate for texts and all (object size and the like) - see attachment.
So it doesn't really render the same as in purr data, like you say. That actually looks the same as the current pd state, as well as old pd extended.
As much as I like the idea of having a new cross platform bahaviour for pd, I was hoping it'd be the same as purr data and all... also that I wouldn't have to reformat over 300 help patches I'm working on, plus my tutorials which is quite numerous as well - not to mentio regular patches/abstractions.
cheers

The zoom feature will work with the correct doubles from pdx metrics, this are the actual doubles of vanilla:
set font_zoom2_metrics { 12 20 14 26 18 32 20 42 30 50 50 90 }
Does *downside* to you is having a little more white space?
Pdx font metrics wont break vanilla patches.
