It seems the default font (Arial) used by Continue does't support Chinese display, build the plugin locally and change font to Microsoft YaHei solved my problem.

So, simply changing the font to one that supports Chinese characters is sufficient.

Why is Intellij IDEA in macOS free from this issue? Does the "Arial" font in macOS contain Chinese?

How to build the plugin locally and change the font ?

I believe this is now resolved as of this PR from a contributor: https://github.com/continuedev/continue/pull/2066.

I'm closing the issue as it now appears to work for me, but if anyone is still experiencing the problem in 0.0.65+ please re-open!
