Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?
Cursor IDE
Describe the Bug
When the terminal pane is open in editor mode, switching between agents/editor view breaks the glyphs. This causes the entire powershell session to be unusable. You can no longer type or enter commands.
I’ve noticed depending on the directory I’m in it will completely break like the image below, but in other directories it visually looks fine but you cannot type anymore. If I close the terminal pane before switch to Agents mode and back - the glyphs do not break, but I cannot type in the terminal anymore.
The only fix is to kill the instance and start a new one. I have https://ohmyposh.dev/ installed and added to my powershell profile. I am on version 27.5.2 which should be latest, but this bug was happening before when I was on a previous version. I updated oh-my-posh to see if it was somehow related to the issue, but it didn’t fix it.
Steps to Reproduce
- Install https://ohmyposh.dev/ and add to powershell profile
- Open terminal pane while in Editor view (Ctrl + J)
- Switch to Agents view (Ctrl + E)
- Switch back to Editor view (Ctrl + E)
Terminal is unusable after this point. Either the glyphs are broken and you cannot type, or the glyphs appear okay but you still can’t type.
Expected Behavior
Terminal shouldn’t break after swapping between Editor/Agents view.
