Environment

  • Operating system: NixOS Linux 20.09
  • Obsidian version: v0.9.20

Additional information

This is a regression — this used to work, and no longer does. I do not know the last working version. It seems plausible that switching fonts would fix this, but I see no way to switch fonts in the configuration.

#2

are you using a custom css? What is your installer version?

#3

I am using custom CSS, but this issue also appears with the “Apply custom CSS” setting disabled, so I don’t think that is causing the issue.

Installer version is 0.8.2.

#4

ok download and install from the latest installer and let me know if yous still have this issue.

#5

Can’t repro on my Nix with the Appimage, https://gyazo.com/d29ff6f952f2ed87b4314435f4562800 what version are you using? Flatpack, Snap? Does your font support Chinese character?
