Properties: Link icon to the daily note of a date key slightly overlaps the date when using a custom font

This is really just a very small UI bug I’ve stumbled upon with the latest Catalyst release of Obsidian v1.4.14 (as I didn’t run into this Obsidian v1.4.13).

TL;DR: The link icon to a daily note appearing next to the date stored within a date key in Properties (when one uses the Daily Notes core plugin) now slightly overlaps said date if one uses a custom fonts for the Interface.

But the link, in itself, still works as intended :blush: .

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open the Sandbox Vault and add a date type of key to Start Here.md

  2. Add any date you wish as a value for the date property previously created

  3. Go in Settings → Appearence and under the Font section, set a font Obsidian should use for the Interface

    • I’ve used JetBrains Mono because that’s the font I’ve always used since we were able to set “custom fonts” for Obsidian.

For a more detailed description of the results, see down below :blush:.

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]

Yes: this has been tested and reproduced in the Sandbox Vault (default dark theme, no snippet, no plugin)

I looked for another bug report but I couldn’t find any (Although I might have missed one :innocent: )

Expected result

Regardless of the font used, I was expecting the link icon to be sitting next to the date.

Actual result

Here’s how the date property looks like with no “custom fonts” set.
→ The link icon is sitting where it should, next to the date.
