Steps to reproduce

I suspect this is DPI related, as I have the following set:

Expected Behavior

Font rendering is consistent in all rows and columns, and matches legacy terminal:

I remember there's a dup issue for rendering issues caused by custom DPI but I couldn't find it...

The support for custom DPI is currently not that good atm. You'll be fine if you're using 150% or 200%, but there might be some rendering glitches (for example #4591) if you're using 114% (really?) or something like that.

This does look like a /duplicate of #4591; thanks for bringing this up!

Yes. I set the DPI to what the screen's DPI actually is, whether in Windows or GNOME or ...

(Was the "(really?)" necessary? It doesn't seem unreasonable to expect a "modern" terminal application to be doing DPI correctly.)

@scottmcm Sorry for the vibe of my response if that made you uncomfortable. Yeah it's totally reasonable to expect Windows Terminal to be handling DPI correctly. Just that terminal is still a rather "young" project comparing to the other competitors. There's a lot of things need polishing right now.

I speak for my own and not my company. Also I'm not part of the dev team of the terminal.
