Steps to reproduce

Description

In Windows Terminal, when using JetBrainsMono Nerd Font, wide Nerd Font glyphs do not fully apply foreground color when any text styling is enabled.

  • When no text style is applied (foreground color only), the glyph renders correctly across both cells.
  • When any style such as bold, italic, underline, or background is applied in combination with foreground color, only the first cell of the glyph receives the foreground color, while the glyph visually spans both cells.
  • Some glyphs may render correctly at certain font sizes, suggesting that this issue is sensitive to glyph metrics and font rendering behavior.

This behavior does not occur on Termux, where all glyphs render fully correctly with any style combination.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Set JetBrainsMono Nerd Font in Windows Terminal.
  2. Output the following glyphs with foreground color and various styles:
    bash:
glyphs=(
  ""
  ""
  ""
  "󰁁"
  "󰁔"
  ""
  "󰱎"
  ""
  "󰕈"
)

reset="\e[0m"
fg="\e[38;5;82m"
bg="\e[48;5;236m"
bold="\e[1m"
italic="\e[3m"
underline="\e[4m"
sep="   "   # 3 spaces

echo "=== fg ==="
for g in "${glyphs[@]}"; do
  printf "${fg}%s${reset}%s" "$g" "$sep"
done
echo

echo "=== bold + fg ==="
for g in "${glyphs[@]}"; do
  printf "${bold}${fg}%s${reset}%s" "$g" "$sep"
done
echo

echo "=== italic + fg ==="
for g in "${glyphs[@]}"; do
  printf "${italic}${fg}%s${reset}%s" "$g" "$sep"
done
echo

echo "=== underline + fg ==="
for g in "${glyphs[@]}"; do
  printf "${underline}${fg}%s${reset}%s" "$g" "$sep"
done
echo

echo "=== bold + bg + fg ==="
for g in "${glyphs[@]}"; do
  printf "${bold}${bg}${fg}%s${reset}%s" "$g" "$sep"
done
echo

powershell:

$glyphs = "","","","󰁁","󰁔","","󰱎","","󰕈"

$esc = [char]27
$reset = "${esc}[0m"
$fg = "${esc}[38;5;82m"
$bg = "${esc}[48;5;236m"
$bold = "${esc}[1m"
$italic = "${esc}[3m"
$underline = "${esc}[4m"
$sep = "   "

Write-Host "=== fg ==="
foreach ($g in $glyphs) {
    Write-Host "$fg$g$reset$sep" -NoNewline
}
Write-Host ""

Write-Host "=== bold + fg ==="
foreach ($g in $glyphs) {
    Write-Host "$bold$fg$g$reset$sep" -NoNewline
}
Write-Host ""

Write-Host "=== italic + fg ==="
foreach ($g in $glyphs) {
    Write-Host "$italic$fg$g$reset$sep" -NoNewline
}
Write-Host ""

Write-Host "=== underline + fg ==="
foreach ($g in $glyphs) {
    Write-Host "$underline$fg$g$reset$sep" -NoNewline
}
Write-Host ""

Write-Host "=== bold + bg + fg ==="
foreach ($g in $glyphs) {
    Write-Host "$bold$bg$fg$g$reset$sep" -NoNewline
}
Write-Host ""
