@atian25 can you use dev tools (Help > Toggle Developer Tools) and inspect the terminal? I'm interested in:

• How wide the terminal panel is
• How wide the problem terminal row is and its contents
• How wide .xterm-rows is

@atian25 do you have a custom font in settings? Can you try changing it to a different one and see if it still reproduces?

not, editor.fontFamily is default as "editor.fontFamily": "Menlo, Monaco, 'Courier New', monospace"

and after some try, it' must be Menlo problem, remove it and everything is ok

[atian25]

so @Tyriar the only way is to remove this font ?

@atian25 well that may be a temporary fix if it's super annoying. This looks like an upstream issue to do with width not being uniform on some fonts.

Thing I managed to repro this (or something very similar) using my normal font Hack on Ubuntu:

Adding styles .xterm-rows { right: 0; } OR .xterm-rows > div { white-space: nowrap; } fix it. It's strange how inconsistent this wrapping is though considering that the lines should fit inside the container.

Put out a PR upstream and pulled the change into vscode since we forked the css file.
