Dropping unmatched character #81

Closed berensn closed 3 years ago

berensn commented 3 years ago

Installed Polybar-5 and am getting the Dropping unmatched character message. Both fonts for the theme are installed Screenshot from 2020-11-16 22-27-35 I tried changing out characters where there were specific icons in the config file but I still got the message

Check that the ~/.local/share/fonts directory exists.

I believe the issue is that Polybar-5 needs Iosevka Nerd Font, not just Iosevka.

The readme just indicates that only Iosevka is necessary, but https://github.com/adi1090x/polybar-themes/blob/master/polybar-5/config.ini#L143 uses Nerd Fonts

I had the same issue, and after installing the iosevka-nerd-font package from AUR the warning disappeared and the angular glyphs showed up (although they still don't look right)

@sethboyles I think I found a fix to the angular glyphs looking weird. I love this theme, and I have had strangeness with the glyphs since day one. I was pouring over the files last night, and found that adding a space after the glyphs at the end of the user_modules.ini file fixed it for me.

Like so: [module/left-end-top] inherit = module/decor-glyph content = "%{T3} %{T-}"

Adding a space after each one of the icons/glyphs

I hope this can help someone.
