[BUG] Graphical Glitch (COSMIC Terminal)

[Querzion]

Read the README.md and search for similar issues before posting a bug report!

Any bug that can be solved by just reading the prerequisites section of the README will likely be ignored.

Describe the bug

Graphical glitch. This could be a Distro problem too, so I will create an issue remark there too.

To Reproduce

Started btop in COSMIC Terminal in the COSMIC DE.

Expected behavior

Not with a graphical glitch.

I'm having the same or similar issue starting it in gnome terminal on Mint Cinnamon DE. Didn't have the issue yesterday and I'm not sure what changed. I'm also getting the same issue with bpytop and bashtop, and bashtop worked fine yesterday.

I also tried:

deleting all fonts and refreshing font cache
deleting all 3rd party themes and icons
running bash with --norc --noprofile

It's worth noting that Terminator and Kitty are not presenting the same issue

I had this issue on cosmic-term and checked out their GitHub issue. After installing the Iosevka font as suggested, apparently it is acting as a fallback font for the braille characters, but now with proper alignment. So, problem solved.

You don't have to select the font as your terminal font, you just have to have it installed and available to provide the braille characters. Possibly the font where the braille characters were coming from before installing Iosevka was not a monospace font. That could explain the misalignment.
