Originally created by @ClaireCJS on GitHub (Nov 4, 2024).

Windows Terminal version

1.21.2911.0

Windows build number

No response

Other Software

Cygwin's echo, merely because it's an easy way to produce ANSI sequences from the command-line

Steps to reproduce

c:\cygwin64\bin\echo.exe -e "❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️\033[3Dhi"

Expected Behavior

I would not expect the h and the ❤ to both be rendered in the same space like that

Image

Actual Behavior

never seen a character drawn over another like this in my life?

Yes, they're caused by the same "issue". I'll explain it over there, in the other issue and close this one.
