fc-list does list the fonts, but if GuiFont is failing either there is a problem with the font itself (usually different size for different variants), or some issue with the Qt font metrics code.

We keep a little binary in src/gui/shellwidget/fontinfo.cpp that prints out the font metrics reported by Qt.

As workaround you can also force the font using GuiFont! fontname.

How to force the font by using lua? I use lua vim.opt.guifont="<font-name>" but I got an error like this: image

equalsraf commented 11 months ago

The lua code would be

vim.cmd('GuiFont ...')

If you are running this from init.lua instead of ginit.vim, then you will need something like an autocommand for UIEnter.

hoofcushion commented 11 months ago

It seems there is no command called GuiFont

Both :lua vim.cmd('GuiFont') and :GuiFont doesn't work image image

Am I doing anything wrong?

hoofcushion commented 11 months ago

I got it, nvim_gui_shim.vim is required. and somehow I haven't got one.

Usually you don't need to set it up manually, check its path in https://github.com/equalsraf/neovim-qt#why-are-the-gui-commands-missing

hoofcushion commented 11 months ago

To force the font by using lua, use this lua vim.rpcnotify(0, 'Gui', 'Font', <font-name>, "!").

I checked, and it just wasn't there, I download one from the repo, and everything is fine now, thanks.

equalsraf commented 11 months ago

That sounds like it is looking for it in the wrong place. If you are building from source it would be in src/gui/runtime. If you installed from some package, it sounds broken, where did you install from?

hoofcushion commented 11 months ago

I think it's from the official website of Neovim

  1. Install Now image
  2. Redirect to Github Wiki
  3. Install from download
  4. Latest stable release
  5. Windows image

equalsraf commented 11 months ago

I assume it is this font https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/tree/master/patched-fonts/Noto/Sans-Mono is that correct?

Yes, I also use this font.
