Is it normal that text is not rendered as fixed-width in strings?
Answered
Is it expected that text does not always render as fixed-width in strings? Outside of strings everything is fine.
Here's a test case:
"XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-" "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX–"

Note the difference between "-" (top line) and "–" (bottom line).
It is also triggered by other characters such as β.
I have IDEA 2016.1.3 on OS X. I did not change the default font (Menlo).

There was a related fix for 2016.2: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-136202.
Could you please check if it's still a problem for your test with the new build from https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/IDEADEV/IDEA+2016.2+EAP?
Yes, this version fixes the problem.
