Awesome-terminal-fonts tiny icons

[marubekko]

Hi again.

I installed ttf-nerd-fonts-common and ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-1000-em with pacman and this caused some of my previous icons provided by awesome-terminal-fonts to become tiny. For example:

The icons should be about the same size as the numbers but they are much smaller. The problem persists in the terminal output and in the i3bar.
I removed ttf-nerd-fonts-common and ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-1000-em but that did not solve the problem.

Can I configure my fonts somehow and fix the issue? Thanks!

I think some of this has been discussed. There might be some font conflicts.

Shrunk icons on panel bar

The icons on panel bar used to be “normal size” but suddenly they are rather small. Did it happen to you? How do I get the icon size back to normal?

Also note eos uses

“ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols changed to ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-2048-em due to upstream package changes.”

Sorry, I hadn’t looked in the i3wm section of the forum since the problem is everywhere, not just in the i3 panel bar.

However, I changed the font to Font Awesome Regular 12, as indicated in the other post, and the problem remains.

Possible that you installed other fonts that can conflict with ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-2048-em?

Edit: also mentioned on this post but it is subtle. Shrunk icons on panel bar - #4 by joekamprad

Edit 2: try reinstalling ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-2048-em and also search what package you have with nerd in there and post the output back here. For example pacman -Qs nerd.

for example I have:

$ pacman -Qs nerd
local/ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-2048-em 2.2.2-3
    High number of extra glyphs from popular 'iconic fonts' (2048-em)
local/ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-common 2.2.2-3
    High number of extra glyphs from popular 'iconic fonts'

$ pacman -Qs nerd                                                                                                                                                                                       17:07:32
local/containerd 1.6.8-1
    An open and reliable container runtime
local/ttf-iosevka-nerd 2.2.2-1
    Typeface family designed for coding, terminal use and technical documents (Nerd Fonts)
local/ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-2048-em 2.2.2-3
    High number of extra glyphs from popular 'iconic fonts' (2048-em)
local/ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-common 2.2.2-3
    High number of extra glyphs from popular 'iconic fonts'

I reinstalled ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols-2048-em. Should I maybe remove ttf-iosevka-nerd?

[Zircon34]

You could try that if it conflicts. In the worst case you can reinstall it…

sudo pacman -Rs ttf-iosevka-nerd

Removing ttf-iosevka-nerd worked! My icons are back to normal. Thank you so much!

sudo pacman -R ttf-iosevka-nerd

Edit: Note that the font in my i3 config is:

font pango: Noto Sans Regular 10
