nRF UART Android app - use monospaced font?

The nRF UART Android app currently uses a non-monospaced font; so, for example, a '1' is a different width to a 'W'.

This makes it hard to view strings where the fields should "line up".

How can I change this to use a monospaced (ie, fixed-pitch) font?

I found the message_detail.xml file, and set the 'typeface' to 'monospace' - but it has no effect.

(actually, it might affect just the first line; but subsequent lines added to the display revert to proportional spacing).
