Visual glitch with date properies in Bases table view with largish font size

Steps to reproduce

  1. Select a custom font size that’s at least 22px (the glitch is more and more evident the larger the font size; conversely, a smaller than standard font size can also result in the opposite glitch)
  2. Create a table view in Bases that includes at least one date property

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

Yes.

Expected result

The date picker icon stays cleanly separated from the date itself.

Actual result

The date picker icon touches or overlaps with the date itself.

Conversely, as you reduce the font size, the icon and the text become more and more separated, until the gap is too large.

Additional information

The icon responds to the font size setting, however it seems to be placed within a fixed size box, so the actual spacing depends only on a user configuration.

Looking into the devtools, I wasn’t able to find a way to assign a different size to the icon or control its spacing, as the whole things is an input type=”date” in HTML.
