Forums Bug Reports 7.0 beta and missing parts of characters bug?

ive noticed that parts of end last character in a channel join are missing.

* test (blah@blah) has joined #zxy

y, m are effected atm

part of the y seems to be missing, it also looks like gradually more of the last character disappears on more joins.

im using Arial 10pt character set, win7 x64

The problem seems to be that mirc recognizes ligatures in text when calculating text width but it does not display those ligatures.The problem only occurs on certain fonts (like Calibri), presumably those that support ligatures. Can you confirm that it only happens with lines that contain "ff" or "fi" etc?

Examples:

//echo -ag fafbfcfd
works fine

//echo -ag ffffabcd
chops off part of d

The problem is evident in $width() as well:

//echo -ag $width(fafbfcfd,calibri,12) != $width(ffffabcd,calibri,12)

Edit: just noticed you said you used Arial, where the problem I described doesn't occur, so there may be something else as well...

it seems it aint just happening on join etc as i first thought, ive noticed this over channel text now too

with Arial 10pt this doesnt seem to cut off any test

Just noticed this myself. In Calibri 12pt, the follow cuts off part of the final "e"...

The e ends up looking something like Є . I think qwerty- hit on the cause. Now we just need a fix.

EDIT: Also, the following notice gets the last letter chopped slightly as well (might have been snotice... not sure):
