Description lesto 2020-03-06 16:49:39 UTC
SUMMARY
If I select a non-monospace font, some symbols will not be fully displayed.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. select a non-monospace font (tested with a variety of HACK, HACK-NERD and MESLO font)
2. display a multi character in the prompt (I used default powerlevel10k)

OBSERVED RESULT
the OS symbol is half covered. Other seems fine

EXPECTED RESULT
the OS symbol is fully displayed.

Thanks to Roman Perepelitsa there is a much easier way to reproduce; simply select a non-monospace font with symbols and run:

> echo -e '\0357\0214\0203\033[31m '
Comment 5 Christoph Feck 2020-03-07 15:39:51 UTC
Only monospaced fonts are supported in Konsole.
Comment 6 Kurt Hindenburg 2024-03-24 01:31:45 UTC
Let us know if you still have this issue in a recent version - note that terminals will really only support monospace fonts
