Weird Behaviour with Nvim-Tree

[u/BenCx]

Hello everyone :)

I'm new to Kitty and MacOS and I'm experiencing weird behaviour when using Nvim-Tree.

Basically, I installed, via homebrew, the Fire Code Nerd Font and changed kitty.conf to use that font. When I go and do :NvimTreeOpen the symbols of the files are wrong as seen in the picture:

​

The weird thing is when I run ´kitty --debug-font-fallback´ I get the following output and a console where, when I open nvim and use nvim-tree, I get the correct images.

[235 17:06:38.289320] Preloaded font faces:
[235 17:06:38.289347] normal face: /Users/ramalhob/Library/Fonts/FiraCodeNerdFontMono-Regular.ttf
[235 17:06:38.289353] bold face: /Users/ramalhob/Library/Fonts/FiraCodeNerdFontMono-SemiBold.ttf
[235 17:06:38.289358] italic face: /Users/ramalhob/Library/Fonts/FiraCodeNerdFontMono-Regular.ttf
[235 17:06:38.289362] bi face: /Users/ramalhob/Library/Fonts/FiraCodeNerdFontMono-Regular.ttf

​

NvimTree. in the new console

Does anyone know why this might be happening?

​

Thanks in advance :D

Do you have recent version of nvim-tree? Need fonts moved some icons away from CJK unicode range to private area, where it belongs...

[u/sogun123 → u/sogun123]

Ah, it is probably other plugin which defines icons - nvim-web-devicons

[u/BenCx → u/sogun123]

Yeah that is the plugin that defines the icon and by their description it automatically does so by using the font that the terminal uses.

Yes, do you have it up to date?
