In the Jupyter notebook, I would like to use the regular Ubuntu font when editing markdown cells and UbuntuMono for code cells. I can change the fonts of both these cell types simultaneously by editing .jupyter/custom/custom.css
like so:
.CodeMirror pre {
font-family: "Ubuntu Mono", monospace;
font-size: 14pt;
}
I can also change the formatting of the headers in the markdown code cells:
.cm-header {
font-size: 110%;
font-family: "Ubuntu";
}
As well as how the text looks when rendered (after executing a markdown cell):
div.text_cell_render {
font-family: "Ubuntu";
font-size: 12pt;
}
However, I don't understand which css classes I could use to discriminate between code cells and paragragh/body text in markdown cells in edit mode. I tried the object inspector in Firefox, but the input text for both cell types show up with the same span tags and css classes. I have tried many of the combinations listed here, but it seems like I just can't find the right one, any ideas?
I received a reply from the Jupyter Notebook issue linked in the comments of my questions here. It is possible to combine CSS selector, so the following solves my problem:
