1878533 - Font inspector reports the wrong actual used font-weight

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(DevTools :: Inspector, defect, P3)

Description

[tim.korn]

Attachment: Font Inspector showing 700 instead of 300

Steps to reproduce:

Import only font-weight 300 via JS (font is installed):
import '@fontsource/poppins/300.min.css'

define font and weight in CSS:
#hero h1 {
margin: 0;
font-size: 56px;
font-weight: 700;
line-height: 64px;
color: var(--color-main-000);
font-family: "Poppins", sans-serif;
}

Actual results:

The h1-headlines is displayed in a thinner font as defined (so far OK, because weight 700 was not imported).

Inspector for fonts (https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools-user/page_inspector/how_to/edit_fonts/index.html#weight) does report "700" as actually used font-weight.

Expected results:

The inspector for fonts (https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools-user/page_inspector/how_to/edit_fonts/index.html#weight) should have shown "300" as actually used font.
