Hello!
I'm using a bold font in MusicBee but the artist and the duration in the player isn't bold (https://imgur.com/a/LkeCW3G) unless I choose an Extra Bold or Black font. Is there a way to fix this? Not all font families have an extra bold/black version. It doesn't disturb me that much but it would still be nice if everything was bold. :)

The player panel has its own font settings where you should be able to set this.
Preferences > Layout (1) > Bottom panel

But perhaps you are using a skin that overrules things?

I set the bold font there but only the title is bold, even in the default skin. Here's a screenshot of the bottom panel settings: https://imgur.com/a/AwncGXB

It indeed seems like the time/duration and the secondary line is exempted from the 'bold' setting.

Hmm, there seems to be more going on.
When I switch from Segoe UI semibold to Segoe UI bold, the title gets bolder, but the secondary line and the time/duration get thinner.
Interesting.

Very weird. xD
