Extra Character Spacing on macOS VS Code Terminal

yaksheng commented 3 years ago

Issue Type: Bug

Hi there

I was surprised to see VS Code showing weird font on its Terminal and when building my C++ project.

I believe the issue is caused by the wrong resizing of fonts when the zoom level of the window is adjusted.

My VS code at present uses a window zoom level of 0. After restarting, the terminal still shows a window zoom level of 0, and terminal letter spacing of zero. However, almost all characters on the terminal and build pane at the bottom right consistently have an empty one character spacing.

To 'fix' this, I used a larger window zoom level of 1. When I switch back to a zoom level of 0, this repeats.

Hope this minor inconvenience can be fixed in an upcoming release.

Thank you and stay safe!

Warmest Regards RIchard
