Hack-14 line mismatch with U+251c and U+2500 #531

Open drmikehenry opened 3 years ago

drmikehenry commented 3 years ago

When using the pair of characters ├─ (as generated by the Linux tree command, for example), there is a small mis-match where the horizontal lines meet in the Hack 14-point font, version 3.003. This doesn't appear to be a problem for other point sizes. It can be reproduced using the Hack playground https://sourcefoundry.org/hack/playground.html on two of my Linux and Windows systems using both Firefox (via the Hack playgroun) Gvim. Unfortunately, the issue doesn't seem to show up on my similar Linux machine which has a 4K monitor with 2x scaling (the other machines are 1920x1200 without scaling) Pasting these two characters (U+251c and U+2500) into the playground should show the issue; if not, I can provide a screen snapshot.

I came here to report basically the same thing. I am seeing it with U+2534 (┴) misaligning with U+2500 (─). As @drmikehenry points out, it happens with some point sizes, but not all. As I scroll the font size in KiTTY, the misalignment comes and goes. Obviously not a big deal, but... 2021-10-11 22_24_03-rve001 .
