unreadable characters appear when opening external windows. #1780

Type: Bug

When opening an externa window (open file, save as, about, license, etc.), all the characters appears as squared shapes. I noticed that after I changed the Ubuntu Themes. All other programs at my computer are not affected after changing the themes. I am using VSCodium snap.

Could you please help me with this issue?

Thank you!

Hi daiyam,

I have tried your instructions by closing VSCodium, running the three commands, reopen VSCodium and the fonts are still showing up as rectangles. Have the three commnands to be opened as root? Do I have to restart the computer?

I am using Ubuntu Mate.

Thank you!

Hi daiyam,

I repeat your instructions as root and restarting the computer and the fonts are still showing up as rectangles.

What do you recommend?

Thank you!
