Change font for desktop

[nikos-chatzatoglou]

Hello there! Does anyone know how to change the font of field desktop. I am trying to npm install @fontsource/roboto
but after that i cannot run the project because of many type errors in the terminal. I noticed that in the package-lock.json appear hasInstallScript = true and some version of field-core that was not there before.

More specific in my package-lock.json i have these entries:

"node_modules/@fontsource/roboto": {
  "version": "5.1.1",
  "resolved": "https://registry.npmjs.org/@fontsource/roboto/-/roboto-5.1.1.tgz",

},

"node_modules/idai-field-core": {
"version": "1.4.0",
"resolved": "https://registry.npmjs.org/idai-field-core/-/idai-field-core-1.4.0.tgz",

Hi @nikos-chatzatoglou! Calling "npm install" in the desktop folder directly can lead to problems. Instead, new dependencies should be added in the package.json file. So in your case, you would add this line to "dependencies" in "desktop/package.json":

"@fontsource/roboto": "5.1.1",

Then you go to the root directory of the repository and call "npm run bootstrap". This way, the new dependency should be installed correctly. If this doesn't work, you can try deleting the folder "desktop/node_modules" and try again.

Thank you for your response! You are correct! It is working fine. Its because lerna manages the modules in the monorepo structrure
