For those who often use regular expressions in Obsidian’s search fields, you may have found that the default variable width font doesn’t make it easy to visually parse the regex which you’re typing. This CSS snippet changes that and makes the font in all search fields use a monospaced font:

/* monospace-font-in-search-fields.css */

input[type="search"] {
  font-family:
    "SFMono-Regular",
    "Menlo",
    "Monaco",
    "MonaspaceNeon",
    "MonaspaceArgon",
    "MonaspaceXenon",
    "MonaspaceKrypton",
    "Cascadia Code",
    "Cascadia Mono",
    "Consolas",
    "Droid Sans Mono",
    "Inconsolata",
    "Courier New",
    monospace;
}
