Disable ink skipping? [Solved.]

Post by lvm »

How can I disable ink skipping (font underlining breaking around tall letters) in firefox 70?

Never mind, found it myself: layout.css.text-decoration-skip-ink.enabled=false

Setting this preference to false no longer works in version 86. Any other solution to fix it?

These layout.css.text-decoration prefs were removed via bug 1682295 in Firefox 86.

You can add code to userContent.css.

Code: Select all

* { text-decoration-skip-ink: none !important; }
