Certain glyphs cut off when they are the right-most symbol being rendered

• I have read and understand the CONTRIBUTING guide
• I looked for duplicate issues before submitting this one

Description

Certain glyphs (for example f7db ) are being cut off if there are no further glyphs to display other than the line terminator. I've confirmed that the issue takes place with both the CaskaydiaCove NF and MesloLGM NF fonts, presumably others as well.

Environment

• Oh my Posh version: 3.106.6
• Theme: agnoster, agnosterplus, nu4a, slim
• Operating System: Windows 10 19042.844
• Shell: PowerShell 7.1.2
• Terminal: Windows Terminal

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open the shell at the home directory using one of the above-mentioned themes
2. Observe that the home icon is cut off
3. cd one level deeper so that the home icon is no longer the right-most symbol being rendered
4. Observe that the home icon no longer cuts off

@stamminator on first sight this smells like a Windows Terminal issue. I'll try to reproduce this in other terminals too.

Ok, so did some test:

Doesn't happen on iTerm2 (macOS)

Doesn't happen on my Windows 10 VM running Terminal Preview:

This is definitely related to either the settings on your Windows Terminal or the Windows Terminal itself (I'm on the Preview version).

I've seen this happen on lots of icons, and can confirm I see it on the house icon. It's related to the nerdfont you select. And this is on both versions of windows terminal (normal and preview). For example:

"fontFace": "MesloLGM Nerd Font Mono", // small icons but shows the entire icon
"fontFace": "MesloLGM Nerd Font", // large icons but cut off

Sadly, I don't believe OMP can do anything about this.

@travistx @stamminator there was an issue about this in the Windows Terminal backlog but I can't seem to find it anymore (glyph spacing).

[tradiff]

Yeah I've seen it before. This is probably the one you're thinking of:
microsoft/terminal#5095

[JanDeDobbeleer]

@travistx Yes! Thank you!!!

@stamminator until the Terminal team decides to fix this, moving to the mono variant fixes the issue.

10-4. I tried playing around with inserting special space characters after the icon, like zero-width space ("home_icon": "\uF7DB\u200B"), but no luck. Ultimately, the only options I can see are switching to the mono font or inserting a regular space after the icon as a spacer to make room for the whole icon. Bummer, I like the larger icons.

@stamminator you could always switch to ConEmu or another terminal. Although I admit, Windows Terminal is neat. They'll get there eventually though.
