Background color breaking when loop piped into lemonbar #167

Closed MarcelRobitaille closed 8 years ago

MarcelRobitaille commented 8 years ago

I have a setup where I am piping the time into lemonbar on a loop. Essentially I have three sections of the bar with two different background colours. Everything works fine until the time gets piped in on the right hand side. At that point the background colour of the time over wrights the background colour I had set. Here are some screenshots to help explain what I am talking about.

This is what I want: GOOD

This is what I get: BAD!!

Edit: I am using the kernel 4.3.3-3-Arch with i3 and compton.

Looks like you are using the xft-Version. Can you reproduce your problem with the standard version from this repo?

MarcelRobitaille commented 8 years ago

Yes it is also happening in the standard version. I was able to fix it by adding %{B-} at the end of the line.
