Yes, the latter. And yes, I can see it in the fonts pane (see attached screenshot). I just want to make it stick for all new windows.
Try remove all your custom font settings from .tm_properties and then set it via the View → Font menu.
It should save the proper name in Global.tmProperties (under AppSupport). You can look there for how it should be spelled out in .tm_properties, if you want to move the setting to ~/.tm_properties — though I would recommend avoid setting font “manually” via .tm_properties.
OK, so the choice of font via the menu is persistent? I was always under the impression that ~/.tm_properties was the "correct" way of setting a default font, since an (admittedly old) blog post seems to document it as such. If not I will stop using that approach, but for the record the right spelling seems to be "SourceCodePro-Medium".
Thanks for the quick response.
