Miami Theme on awesomewm has weird fonts

I've just installed the miami theme onto a fresh void linux install. The titlebar and the topbar have what looks like simple Times New Roman font, when I don't think it should. I've been going over the config files, and other references in other closed issues for about an hour now, and can't figure this out. Anyone have a fix? Am I just missing a font? Picture attached.

Cool, it's work on void, I'll test the system later unless I test KISS, we'll see :)

The code for:

  • the fonts, it's here
  • the titlebar, here

The titlebar use the font name subtile_1, so it's subtile_1 = "Space Mono Nerd Font Complete Mono 13",

Try to look is the font name match on void, something like:

$ fc-match -a | grep -i "space"

I downloaded the “Space Mono Nerd Font” from the nerdfonts website and put the files into the ~/.fonts folder. Is there another place I need to put it in?

$ fc-match -a | grep “space” returned nothing, but using a capital S did.

you can install the font at ~/.local/share/fonts and reload the cache with

$ fc-cache -vf ~/.local/share/fonts

After this, reload awesome and it should work.

That didn’t work either! What‘s your output for fc-match -a | grep -i “space”

szorfein commented

When the font is correctly installed, it should return this:

$ fc-match -a | grep -i space

Space Mono Nerd Font Complete Mono.ttf: "SpaceMono Nerd Font Mono" "Regular"
Space Mono Nerd Font Complete.ttf: "SpaceMono Nerd Font" "Regular"
Space Mono Bold Nerd Font Complete Mono.ttf: "SpaceMono Nerd Font Mono" "Bold"
Space Mono Bold Nerd Font Complete.ttf: "SpaceMono Nerd Font" "Bold"
Space Mono Italic Nerd Font Complete Mono.ttf: "SpaceMono Nerd Font Mono" "Italic"
Space Mono Italic Nerd Font Complete.ttf: "SpaceMono Nerd Font" "Italic"
Space Mono Bold Italic Nerd Font Complete Mono.ttf: "SpaceMono Nerd Font Mono" "Bold Italic"
Space Mono Bold Italic Nerd Font Complete.ttf: "SpaceMono Nerd Font" "Bold Italic"

Maybe that void linux does things differently, at worst try to make a real package spacemono-nerd-font in a custom repo https://docs.voidlinux.org/xbps/repositories/custom.html :)
