Same problem as #2502 pinned issue.

Just for the record I use Hack 10 pt and all the dots show with default 
settings with a 27" QHD screen but are fainter than 9 or 11 pt indicating that 
they are partly cut off.  

As explained in the multitude of duplicates of the issue it depends critically 
on the relationship of points (1/72 inch so an actual size) and screen 
resolution in pixels per inch on your screen and which way the calculation 
rounds when converting from floating point fractions of an inch that the font 
is defined in, to integer pixels on the screen.  Sometimes it rounds down and 
cuts stuff off, but only on some screens with some font sizes.

At some time in the future a change to the way Scintilla does the rounding may 
help, but it also may just shift the problem to a different combination of 
fonts, sizes and screen resolutions, YMMV.  This version has just stabilised, 
and has significant changes so it may be a while before it gets included in 
Geany.

Until then the workaround is the correct solution.
