Output is dirty with `Monospace` font

Open InAnYan opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

When I use Monospace 12 font in mlterm, I have "snowflaked" dirty output sometimes. No additional properties is set, except this in ~/.mlterm/aafont:

DEFAULT = Monospace 12

With fully-reset mlterm, there is no such issue (IDK which font is the default).

Here are some screenshots when running lynx duckduckgo.com:

Thanks for your report. Which font do you use? If you configure ~/.mlterm/aafont or ~/.mlterm/font, please show me it. line_space option might improve this problem. If you try to build git head, use_clipping option might be helpful.

Sorry, I should've written a more descriptive issue. IDK, maybe I was caught off-guard with this.

I edited the rant, and included all necessary details.

Original story was: when I reset the configs, there were no problems. When I switched to the font I use regularly (currently JetBrains Nerd Font Mono), there were no "snowflakes". Turns out Monospace is somewhat special 😅

It was also hard to capture this bug, because sometimes it appears, sometimes not

Please specify line_space option manually if output is dirty. e.g.) ~/.mlterm/main line_space = 1

If you build mlterm from git head, using use_clipping option eliminates the garbage on the screen. e.g.) ~/.mlterm/main use_clipping = true
