Description max 2018-04-21 08:38:27 UTC

Using the terminal for a lot of stuuf eg mutt and nano I remarked after the update which I've done yesterday that every programm using the Konsole with text is behaving bizarr.

writing commands in the terminal the distance between written text and cursor is somehow set to 5 mm.
marking text for copying it in other programms leads to shift of the text and further to wrong marking positions.

Mutt has fixed layout for seeing everything in columns. The changing of the written text destroys this completly and everthing is flowing deependig on the length of words and whether text is bold or not. This didn't happend before.

Nano shifts the text in the lines, deepending where the cursor is. So there is no fixed text, but a lot of movement.

Sounds like your font settings are messed up. Does this reproduce if you try it with a new user account on the same computer?

Thx for the tip. I did some more reserarch since it didn't happend with another user. I changed the font in the settings of konsole to another one and now it's working again. Tho old font - I unfortunatly don't remeber the name - was not choosable anymore in the menu. so i changed to another one.

My Probelm is now fixed.
