# monospacedDigit()

Returns a modified font that uses fixed-width digits, while leaving other characters proportionally spaced.

## Declaration

```swift
func monospacedDigit() -> Font
```

## Return Value

Return Value A font that uses fixed-width numeric characters.

## Discussion

Discussion This modifier only affects numeric characters, and leaves all other characters unchanged. If the base font doesn’t support fixed-width, or monospace digits, the font remains unchanged. The following example shows two text fields arranged in a VStack. Both text fields specify the 12-point system font, with the second adding the monospacedDigit() modifier to the font. Because the text includes the digit 1, normally a narrow character in proportional fonts, the second text field becomes wider than the first. @State private var userText = "Effect of monospacing digits: 111,111."

var body: some View {     VStack {         TextField("Proportional", text: $userText)             .font(.system(size: 12))         TextField("Monospaced", text: $userText)             .font(.system(size: 12).monospacedDigit())     }     .padding()     .navigationTitle(Text("Font + monospacedDigit()")) }
