i3status doesn't show applet #17

Closed nemya9066 closed 3 years ago

nemya9066 commented 4 years ago

Applet such as nm-applet aren't visible in i3status bar and even refuse showing when run form the command line. In other window managers I tested (qtile, awesomee) the same issue appear. Any clarification about why i3status is having problems with sx?

There's no reason why it wouldn't work, sx doesn't do anything functionally differently from xinit and startx.

Is it possible this is related to #18?

It's possible; try sourcing those scripts via sxrc and see if you experience anything different.
