Comment 1 Nate Graham 2024-01-11 16:26:31 UTC 
Likely caused by the metrics of your font, as I don't see this with Noto Sans. What font are you using?

The dialog comes from Purpose; moving there.

SF Pro Display fonts

I'm using the attached fonts.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2024-01-12 21:40:06 UTC 
Thanks. What exact font and font size are you using? I cannot reproduce with issue with 10pt or 11pt SF Pro.
Comment 4 Patrick Silva 2024-01-13 15:49:48 UTC 
I'm using regular fonts, 10pt. The bug occurs if font hinting is set to "Full". Can reproduce on neon unstable too.
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2024-01-16 21:05:08 UTC 
Can reproduce the issue with 10pt SF Pro Display and full hinting. 10 pt Noto Sans with full hinting is not affected, though.
Comment 6 Janet Blackquill 2024-01-16 21:15:14 UTC 
SF Pro Display is a display font, which does not mean "display" as in "computer display." Display in the context of typography means that it is designed to be viewed at large sizes and the metrics and glyphs are adjusted accordingly. Using a display font at small sizes and getting suboptimal results is not a bug. Feel free to reopen if you can reproduce this with a non-display font.
