Is this glyph being displayed too small?
See original GitHub issueIntroduction
Hello, first: Thanks for the project. I think it is a great idea to have many more decentralized but also automated projects turning fonts into nerd fonts instead of a single big one. And this shows how it can be done
Question
I have noticed that basically all nerd font specific glyphs are being displayed very small compared to official unicode glyphs. It looks like all glyphs are occupying a single “width”.
echo -e "\uf015HALLO\n🚀HALLO"
Is this expected? Is it the same for other users?

The rocket
U+1f680
🚀is in some other font.Delugia’s range is limited to
U+ffff
and does not contain any codes beyond (which is a deliberate decision).Delugia is usually a monospaced font, that means that all glyphs have the same width.
H
orL
or whatever is the widest glyph we have.H
together, so more than two times as wide.Lets have a look which versions we generate:
So propapbly you do not want the monospaced but the proportional font. With that font the icons are as big as they were in the sources, so probably bigger (wider) than a capital
H
. Did you try that font?Edit: Just change emphasis in version list
That is the reason we decided to have different naming scheme than Nerd Fonts; to be free to handle stuff as we/our users see fit.
I close this, please reopen if you think something is still amiss.
Thanks for the report.
