Hyper: Airline/Powerline Vim font not working

Created on 17 Jul 2016 · 12Comments · Source: vercel/hyper

The patched Meslo font doesn't load even after specifying it in the config.

Here's iTerm2 for reference:

As an aside, there also seems to be a rendering issue with the vertical columns at 80px and 120px.

Adding this to my ~/.zshrc fixed the issue:

export LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
export LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
export LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
export LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
export LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
export LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
export LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"

I tried your config and I have the same issue. Which version are you on? I'm on version 0.5.0.

mhluska on 17 Jul 2016

I'm using 0.5.0. What kind of font is yours? Also .otf?

marcbachmann on 17 Jul 2016

Yes .otf. I just use whatever is here.

Different OS?

montogeek on 17 Jul 2016

I'm on OS X El Capitan v10.11.5.

The fonts are stored in $HOME/Library/Fonts. Does hyperterm expect a different location?

@mhluska for me it turned out to be locale settings in fish.

This time I had symbols working in vim but not in my fish theme (agnoster), every time it comes down to the same things but always for getting one.

[ ] supportive font https://github.com/powerline/fonts
[ ] correct naming of font in fontFamily in `~/.hyper.js
[ ] are you using utf8 where the issue is?

I still got the same issue event after I applied all these LANG variables as "en_US.UTF-8", here is a screenshot in Hyperterm:

For me the solution was to edit .hyper.js not .hyperterm.js #2cents

@paxpacis Good spot, hadn't updated my comment since the hyperterm rename.

My problem is powerline in zsh prompt not working.
Just add some notes, for whatever reason, only "Meslo LG S for Powerline" works for me.
Melso LG M didn't work. Strange. No need to configure LANG variable. Just change from M to S works for me.
