Keep getting unmatched symbol U+f011 (power menu icon)

Issue

I'm new to polybar and am trying to make my own bar, using the default config for reference. I've installed gucharmap as well to make sure my glyphs are in fact in the font set. All three of my fonts have U+0f11, but polybar seems to refuse to load it anyway.

To Reproduce

[colors] background = #000f0f0f foreground = #f4f9ff

[bar/top] width = 100% height = 38 fixed-center = false

background = ${colors.background} foreground = ${colors.foreground}

font-0 = fixed:pixelsize=18;1 font-1 = Unifont:style=Medium:fontformat=truetype:size=18:antialias=false;1 font-2 = Font Awesome 5 Free:style=Regular:pixelsize=18:size=18;1

modules-left = powermenu

cursor-click = pointer cursor-scroll = ns-resize

[module/powermenu] type = custom/menu label-active-font = 3 expand-right = true

format-spacing = 1

label-open =  label-font = 3 label-open-foreground = ${colors.foreground} label-separator = | label-separator-foreground = ${colors.foreground}

menu-0-0 = reboot
menu-0-0-exec = menu-open-1
menu-0-1 = power off
menu-0-1-exec = menu-open-2
menu-1-0 = cancel
menu-1-0-exec = menu-open-0
menu-1-1 = reboot
menu-1-1-exec = sudo reboot
menu-2-0 = power off
menu-2-0-exec = sudo poweroff
menu-2-1 = cancel
menu-2-1-exec = menu-open-0

[global/wm] margin-top = 5 margin-bottom = 5

Read point 2 in Debugging Font issues. The dropped character is from ttf-font-icons

EDIT: Font Awesome and Unifont don't have this glyph. In gucharmap, you need to set View -> Show only glyphs from this font, otherwise gucharmap will show you icons from other fonts if the current one doesn't have it.

Also this powermenu icon is not in the sample config, the sample config uses U+E10C from Wuncon Siji

Oh okay, thank you for the gucharmap tip. I did change the symbol from the siji to this one, since I've been having scaling problems with the Siji glyphs.

patrick96 commented 5 years ago

Yeah, unfortunately siji doesn't scale :frowning_face:
