No icons with Nerd Fonts about powerlevel9k HOT 13 OPEN

Does the output of xrdb -query indicate that urxvt is using a Nerd Font? If not, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Rxvt-unicode#Configuration for how to configure fonts (among other things) for urxvt.

Thank you for replying, here is my code for fonts.

URxvt.font: xft: Hack\ Bold\ Nerd\ Font:pixelsize=11:antialias=true:hinting=true

when doing xrdb -query, i get no output.

Thank you for replying, here is my code for fonts.

Is urxvt actually using Hack Bold Nerd? If you change this font to something else, do you notice any difference in the way text looks in urxvt?

from powerlevel9k.

Yes, i tried changing to Droid Sans and it changes. And the font look identical to how the Hack Bold is supposed to look. strange...

I have a feeling there is a user error on my behalf here..

Almost certainly. You would make it easier for others to help you if you could answer all questions from the issue template without skipping any. I'll highlight a few sections you've skipped over that are crucial for understanding your issue.

Most issues are best explained with a screenshot. Please share one if you can!

This is the most important thing. Without a screenshot it's anyone's guess what "no icons or glyphs" means.

Which font configuration mode are you using? You can check this with (echo $POWERLEVEL9K_MODE).

Do run the command and post its output.

Better yet, run typeset -pm 'POWERLEVEL9K_*'.

Please share the contents of $P9k/debug/font-issues.zsh.

Here $P9k is a placeholder for the directory where you've cloned powerlevel9k.

If this is an icon problem, does the output of $ get_icon_names look correct?

Ignore the dollar. The command you need to run is get_icon_names. Attach a screenshot of the output.

P.S.

If you don't mind my asking, how did you learn about the existence of powerlevel9k?

Thanks for posting the screenshot. Your terminal is not using Hack. See here for how Hack looks like. What you see in the terminal is likely a fallback that urxvt uses when the configured font is invalid. It's basically "no font" mode.

There is my .Xdefaults

I do not see how it wont pull in the fonts?
Please advice if you can

Here's the question that you need to ask: "How to configure urxvt to use Hack Nerd Font?" I don't know the answer as I use neither urxvt nor Hack Nerd Font. There must be forums that are better suited to questions of this sort than an issue tracker of an unrelated abandoned project.

from powerlevel9k.

did a fc-list | grep Hack.. and found it to be my bad typing.
solve the issue, so can close this.

the output should be:
URxvt.font: xft:Hack Nerd Font:pixelsize=12

Than you for your help, much appreciated.

You are most welcome.

Do you mind? It would allow me to help future potential users so that they don't fall into the same trap.

Watched some videos on youtube where others where tweaking their terminals, and had to do some searches, and found you from there.
