looks like i cant edit this but some fonts look to be missing as well from the xfce terminal font drop down in the preferences too |
 |
When you open terminal and select about does it say QT Terminal? If you want terminal to run the xfce4-terminal try this run exo-preferred-application and change the default terminal emulator under the Utilities tab. Hope that helps, QT terminal I found limited on fonts myself. |
 |
it was qtterminal not xfce4-terminal as expected, which also was not even installed oddly. i dont recall seeing anything in the release notes about this change but it may throw off many people. |

We've used qterminal as the default terminal in the XFCE desktop since we made the switch. I don't know if we called out specifically that it was, but it has been the case as we found it fit our wants and needs a lot better than xfce-terminal. |
 |
This issue is caused by an update in Qt5 library not by qterminal per se. One of the reasons Kali uses qterminal and FiraCode font is to support font ligatures. |
|
|
Actually, I've found that removing the space from the name fixes this issue. simply edit ~/.config/qterminal.org/qterminal.ini and set fontFamily=FiraCode |
 |
was going to also report and saw this plus a bunch of forum posts for the same https://forums.kali.org/showthread.php?51025-Can-t-change-Terminal-font-and-size-in-new-update im ok with firacode fonts but some might not be, wether is readability or something else and they may not see this issue. changing the ini is ok but the ui also doesnt list all fonts as a secondary issue |

Fixed with kali-themes 2020.4.1 You need to remove your local settings ~/.config/qterminal.org/qterminal.ini |
