--- Comment #12 from Harald Sitter <sit...@kde.org> ---
When you remove those lines the Noto fonts are no longer used. So, this answers
nothing much as this is still either a metrics calculation issue in Qt or the
qml components, or a problem with the font itself. When I open NotoSymbols2 and
NotoSans and compare U+2B24 (which I think is the particular type of circle) to
other characters they seem to in fact have different heights. Now I don't know
the next thing about font design but I'm inclined to assume that if they are
different heights in fontforge, they'll be different size when rendered.
What puzzles me though is when you copy ⬤⬤⬤⬤⬤ into kickoff's lineedit it
doesn't switch size. What it means or if it means anything I don't know.
In conclusion I think the problem is the NotoSymbols2 font itself. So you'll
probably want to file the bug report with them on github.
Furthermore I think the problem likely would go away if we simply used U+25CF
which is a regular sized black circle (U+2B24 is big black circle, so in a way
it's rendering the kind of circle that was requested ;)).
Moving this bug to plasma-integration for consideration. AFAIK the
platformtheme sets the password masking character.
