Can you please attach a screenshot demonstrating the issue?

In-text code:

This is a code block:

This does look nasty. Which os/browser are you using?

Debian 10 and Gnome.

I have tried to understand what happens and I now guess that backticks are understood by the system as dead caps, waiting for the next letter to be written then joined with it.

Will changing font type/size work in this case?

I guess so. I am using Brave and Firefox as browsers, both with the standard font settings.

Just set up a debian10 via VMWare and access OneDev from it with firefox. The backtick displays fine when editing the markdown.

Closing now. Feel free to reopen if there is more info.

Hi Robin, OneDev is the ONLY software (we have +64 hosted here) displaying the behavior. My hunch is that you are using a font that is not standard and/or not available on Linux.

I had an idea: maybe OneDev is not compatible with one of the Brave extensions I activate in normal usage: Decentraleyes, UBlockOrigin. I checked by opening a OneDev editor in a Private window where I desactivate all extensions > the same.

OneDev is using google poppins font which is very comfort, and it works in Mac, Windows. I tried Debain and Ubuntu from VMWare and they both display nicely. Maybe I need to set up a bare metal linux box to verify this.

Reopen this issue to keep a record.

You know, I'll try to install the font on my workstation (which it is not). Will keep you posted. But this can't be the only time you will see this reported by Linux users.

Actually, Poppins font was already installed on my machine. I will try to remove it instead and load it on the fly from the website itself.

You may open with firefox, open the debugger to turn off poppins font in selector html, body to see if backtick displays correctly

BINGO ! It worked well when I disabled the font in the debugger:

So, I guess I will have to uninstall the version I have on my workstation. But, as you know, fonts are a matter of taste and I find this one not so readable as compared with, say, Lato. So, why not allow users to choose their own font and font size?

Thanks for verification. Will disable poppins for Linux users. Allowing user to choose font family and size freely is not a good idea as UI is often tuned under a specific font/size.

Closing as unable to reproduce.
