High-minus (APL) combines with next character in notepad.exe

[arcfide]

I just noticed a strange interaction with APL glyphs in some Windows editors. With Dyalog APL, the font renders slowly, but correctly (v 0.827) when putting ¯2 in the code. However, with Notepad.exe, the high-minus seems to merge with the next letter, resulting in, for instance, a vertical bar over a if I juxtapose the high-minus with a. With numbers, because they are taller, the high-minus completely disappears.

I have noticed that this is also happening with ¯1 in Microsoft word.

Fixed since 0.828 version.
Unfortunately other users will be unable to see correctly characters like Ā ā Ī ī… to fix this issue

I just downloaded 0.828 and tried this, but the issue is still there. With the Liga and non-Liga versions.

Sorry @arcfide but I see this in Notepad

Isn't that what you wanted?

I have attached what I see in the new version compared to the canonical font. The sample text is: ¯0 ¯1 ¯2 ¯3 ¯4 ¯5 ¯6 ¯7 ¯8 ¯9 ¯50 ¯32 ⌽⍉⊖⍟⍥○*∘⍤⍣ ¨¯<≤=≥>≠∨∧×÷⊢⋄ ?⍵∊⍴~↑↓⍳○*←→ ⍺⌈⌊_∇∆∘'⎕⍎⍕ ⊂⊥⊤|⍝⍀⌿ ⌶⍫⍒⍋⌽⍉⊖⍟⍱!⌹⊣⌺ ⍷⍨⍸⍥⍣⍞⍬ ⍺⍤⌸⌷≡≢ ⊆⊃∩∪⍪⍙⍠

I don't know what's going on, but I wanted to update you and report that this issue appears to be fixed for Pragmata Pro Liga and non-Liga forms, but not for Mono in 0.828 on the latest version of Microsoft Windows for Notepad. I don't know what has change, but I'm closing this issue as it does not appear to be a problem at this point. If it pops back up, I'll reopen.
