Round unicode characters in modeline cut off #203

I am not sure how to describe this exactly, so I'm going to post a screenshot.

Basically, when I run spacemacs in terminal mode (with -nw option or when ssh'd into another machine) the round badges in the modeline and window numbers get cut off an are not showing the entire circle:

46119529-5f8de980-c1d9-11e8-8a07-c25b1db52a1c

The rest of the modeline appears correct, so I don't think it's an issue with powerline fonts, but not sure what else it could be.

Any suggestions?

Thanks much!

Honestly I don't think there's much I can do about this. You can try to copy and paste those characters into your shell prompt and I suspect they will look the same. It comes down to what font the terminal chooses to render those characters with, how wide they are, and what the terminal decides to do if they are too wide.

I tend to recommend turning off unicode symbols, for what it's worth.

You were right, pasting those characters into terminal shows same exact thing. I will chase it down elsewhere or turn off unicode symbols. How does one do that by the way? Thanks!

Since it looks like you are using Spacemacs you should consult Spacemacs documentation for that. I believe there's a dotfile variable for it.
