Hi, first of all I love your nord theme for polybar.
The issue is that the icons in the bar only show half way. On both of my devices so it's not hardware related.
Both of them are running arch with i3.
I include a screenshot so you can see what i mean.

It's working fine here, have you modified the default font and in what modules this happens?

I'll close this now, but I'll update some modules from the nord theme.

I checked if it was the fonts because I increased the size for my display. However it does not make the icons full. It doesnt happen with the i3 module or the cpu and such. Only with date, weather en the power button. Some other modules have been disabled though.

I'm wondering if it is has to do with the way the icons are defined in the modules.

If you increase the font just give more space to the prefix.

Like this:

format-prefix = %{T6}icon   %{T-}

I started to look a bit more into the icon itself and it behaves verry weird. When i paste it into my terminal i can do this by just moving my cursor before the screenshot and then removing any text that comes before it

And in the config file. this is the way it shows up, and when i move my cursor over there it starts glitching out. This might be of because of a missing dependency on my end. I have font awesome and jetbrains mono installed though.

As you can se it also overlaps, this might be what is causing it to only show up halfway.

@Murzchnvok

Yeah, you're right.

So I was searching and I found this: "Fonts without "Monospace" in their name have oversized icons that overlap the next character to the right."
