Sans-serif font for visual editor

It seems like the default font for the visual editor in core has changed 
to sans-serif.
It seems like this has happened recently.
Do you know if there's a ticket/changeset for this?
I'm looking, but coming up empty.

Thanks!
-Mike

Re: Sans-serif font for visual editor

Navjot Singh,

Thanks for the links! These link apply to the HTML editor though, I was inquiring about the Visual editor.
This may be hard to see on a stock install of trunk running Twenty Eleven. The reason for this is that Twenty
Eleven provides a custom stylesheet for the Visual Editor. To see what I am talking about, you will need to
install a theme that has no editor stylesheet. The following theme will do if you cannot find one right away:https://github.com/mfields/Proto

Here is what text in the Visual Editor looks like in 3.3.1

Here is what test looks like in the latest trunk:

Notice that 3.3 is using a Georgia/Times stack while Trunk is overriding this with a sans-serif font.

I just wanted to check in to see if this was intentional or a regression.

Best,
-Mike

Nope, it's not really a theme issue, rather something with TinyMCE.

It looks like this issue was introduced in 
http://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/19982

which references this ticket: http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/18311

I'm thinking this might be a regression though since the ticket does not 
mention a font change.

Re: Sans-serif font for visual editor

You can change the HTML font in themes, however (I had to because it looked horrific on my crappy old Windows
NT/IE 8 PC, don't judge me, it's work's).

Double check your theme isn't doing that? Unless you're on a 201x theme.

Re: Sans-serif font for visual editor

Yes, this bit wasn't supposed to be there yet. Was testing a better 
default font setting for the editor, it needs to work well in all 
languages (RTL, etc.).

Opened http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/20186 for that.
