vscode: Broken font icons in terminal
Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes
- VS Code Version: 1.67
- OS Version: Arch Linux x86_64 & macOS 12
I’m using powerlevel10k theme for my zsh shell. Up until now everything was fine. My MacBook has the same configuration (oh-my-zsh plugin manager, powerlevel10k theme, MesloLGS NF font) and after update the problem appeared.
How it was (1.66)
How it is now (1.67)

I used “MesloLGS NF” font with the same issue on insiders as well.
P.S:
"terminal.integrated.gpuAcceleration": "canvas"
: this setting seems to fix it temporarily until a fix is issued.I’m still on the stable (non-insider) build and can confirm, that the issue goes away when setting GPU acceleration to “canvas”. Somewhere, I read this before, but it was pointing to another settings option that doesn’t seem to exist anymore.
For me this issue is fixed now.
terminal.integrated.gpuAcceleration
is set to “auto
” and symbols in the terminal are still looking fine.To clarify my above comment, this is fixed in the webgl renderer but not the DOM renderer (tracked in https://github.com/xtermjs/xterm.js/issues/3807#issuecomment-1135035551). If you moved to
canvas
I recommend switching back toauto
oron
when this lands in stable as you’ll get much better performance.Just updated Insiders v1.68 to 113287ccc3be52dc3409d451a9b3416d133dca1a and the issue isn’t yet fixed
@fiechr I am confident this will fix it. It would be helpful if you could verify that it’s fixed once this issue gets the label
insiders-released
in a few days.
