Font selection is always a bit wonky on OSX in my experience. Sublime doesn't offer a separate font weight knob but does offer "font_options" which takes an array of string values – specifying bold will get you a bold by default font. For an arbitrary weight what worked for me was to use the PostScript name e.g. "MonaspaceArgonVar-ExtraLightItalic". There are plenty of ways to find the PS name but on OSX (on Sonoma at least) you can go into the Font Book app and find it under identifiers after you've selected a specific variant.

Thanks, this works!

So tl;dr it's: "MonaspaceVARIANT-WEIGHT", no spaces.

    In this case yes, but I would double check the PostScript name because I believe that naming convention is not a hard requirement.
