Bug Report: Misalignment of Unicode ` ̂` (U+00302) in JuliaMono

[singularitti]

Description: There appears to be an issue with the positioning of the Unicode combining circumflex accent (̂, U+00302) in the JuliaMono font. When the accent is used above certain Unicode Latin characters, it is mispositioned and shifted rightwards instead of being placed directly on top of the characters.

Example Code:

ŷ::Int, 𝐲̂::String, 𝐲̂, 𝖸̂, 𝕐̂, 𝐱̂₁³, 𝑥̂, 𝑸̂, 𝒜̂, 𝓐̂, 𝔲̂

Observed Behavior: In the example provided, the \hat in characters 𝐲̂, 𝐱̂₁³, 𝑥̂, and 𝑸̂ is visibly shifted to the right, not aligning properly on top of the Unicode characters.

Expected Behavior: The circumflex accent should be correctly aligned on top of the respective Unicode Latin characters.

Reproducibility: This issue is reproducible in Visual Studio Code (VSCode) with JuliaMono font applied.

Screenshots:

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Use the JuliaMono font.
2. Display the example code provided in VSCode.
3. Observe the misalignment of the \hat character above the Unicode Latin characters.

Environment:

• Font: JuliaMono
• Version: 0.056
• Operating System: macOS 14.6.1 (23G93)
• Application: Visual Studio Code (VSCode) Version: 1.93.0

I think it is a bug, but a bug in VS-Code, not the JuliaMono font. Here are other environments where these are rendered correctly:

In a text editor (CotEditor):

In a Pluto notebook:

in iTerm terminal:

In Terminal (MacOS):

In Jupyter notebook:

They work as expected here because the anchors are correctly placed in the font:

— there's nothing I can "fix" here.

Other environments that don't render these correctly include Alacritty, Kitty, and WezTerm ... 😞

Thanks for the clarification. I will report to them!
