Bad rendering of TUI tools in terminal

[kfollesdal]

I have understood that the terminal in Zed is using Alacritty. So I have tried to run some TUI tools in the terminal, for example lazygit and btop. But the rendering is not as as expected and similarly to how it is in a normal Alacritty terminal.

Have anybody experience the same? Any settings that solve this?

Lazygit in Zed terminal:

Lazygit in Alacritty:

Zed 0.145.1 tried on both Mac and Linux

For me TUI is ok.
Zed from Git, Ubuntu 22.04 Gnome Wayland

Adding this to your settings will fix it :)

{
  "terminal": {
    "line_height": "standard"
  }
}

Thanks, strangely did not work for me. So probably something with my setup. I will try to figure out what is going on. Let you know if I figure it out.

Did you figure it out?

I have the same problem. I am running Gemini CLI inside the Zed terminal and the TUI is not rendering correctly. This fix did not work for me.

I don't think this is an actual fix, just making thing a bit less worse compared to the default "comfortable" line height. If increase the font size, there is still noticeable gaps between lines (say vertical bar). Tuning down line height indefinitely seems not to be a good solution either.
