Created attachment 77676 [details] list of monospace fonts In the dialog to select default monospace fonts. A number of fonts show up that aren't actually monospace fonts. For example, Marlett, Symbol, Symbol Neu, Wingdings, Webdings, etc. See attached screenshot. Many of these fonts come from Window. I thought maybe they falsely advertise themselves as monospace. So I tried to edit their spacing property in ~/.fonts.conf like this: <match target="font"> <test name="family"> <string>Symbol</string> </test> <edit name="spacing"> <const>proportional</const> </edit> </match> <match target="font"> <test name="family"> <string>Symbol Neu</string> </test> <edit name="spacing"> <const>proportional</const> </edit> </match> But this has no effect, they still show up in the list and Konsole's available font list as well (where they obviously can't be used). This might be a Qt bug not detecting the correct font metric. But what metric is it querying so I may try to provide a workaround with local fontconfig setting.
