i3 Korean problem in every window title bar

asked 2013-06-02 14:16:25 +0000

When I open an application, the top of the application window shows the title of the document or the title of the website you visit.

But when I use i3 WM, then all the Korean titles are broken and denoted by boxes. On the other hand, I don't have such problem in Gnome.

How can I solve this problem in i3?

Please state what version of i3 you are using. i3 4.3 is the first version with pango support, so if you configure the font using pango: or xft: (depends on the version), things should work fine.

Thank you for the quick answer. I got it. With your help, I could consult the use guide of i3.

One can consult the user guide, Section 4.2 Fonts about using pango.

Thank you.

Hadn't seen the pango support yet (I use Japanese and Chinese on a daily basis, and missed that a lot - instead of finding the xfonts myself)... Awesome!
