Is there a way to reduce the "weight" of Glyphicons?
I am using the "ok" Glyphicon <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-ok"></span>
which displays like this:
Is there any way to reduce the weight to produce a thinner tick without reducing the font size? Changing the font-weight
to lighter
has no effect whatsoever.
Using white stroke is a way to do it
-webkit-text-stroke: 2px white;
You could apply the font-weight
property on ::before
pseudo element to alter the font-weight:
.glyphicon {
font-size: 60px;
}
.glyphicon-light::before {
font-weight: 100;
}
.glyphicon-thick::before {
font-weight: 900;
}

<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search glyphicon-light"></span>
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search"></span>
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search glyphicon-thick"></span>
Works on Different background-color.
$(document).ready(function() {
$( "[.fas || .glyphicon]" ).each(function( index ) {
var color = $(this).parent().css("background-color");
$(this).css("-webkit-text-stroke","2px "+color)
});
});
Notice : choose one of .fas
or .glyphicon
.
You can also use opacity on the glyphicon
if you do not want to apply this globally.
<span style="opacity:0.25;" class="glyphicon glyphicon-ok"></span>
