Home-manager not setting gtk font

Help
1

I am unable to set the gtk font. Home-manager does not seem to apply my desired font.

home-manager = {
	backupFileExtension = "hm-backup";
	useGlobalPkgs = true;
	users.dxwil = { config, pkgs, lib, unstable, ... } :
		{
		 gtk = {
			enable = true;
		 	cursorTheme.name = "macOS";
			cursorTheme.size = 20;
		 	font.name = "SF-Pro-Display";
			gtk3.extraConfig = {
      				Settings = ''
        				gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=1
					gtk-font-name=SF-Pro-Display
      				'';
    			};

    			gtk4.extraConfig = {
      				Settings = ''
        				gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=1
					gkt-font-name=SF-Pro-Display
      				'';
    			};
		 };

…it should’ve been “SF Pro Display”, instead of “SF-Pro-Display”

Yep, if you aren’t sure, you can also use fc-match to verify if a given string returns the font you want
