yabar doesn't place itself at the top. #133

Open coldcod opened 7 years ago

coldcod commented 7 years ago

yabar leaves out a big chunk of space at the top, even though I've included position: "top"; in yabar.conf. But when I start yabar with a maximized window, it perfectly places itself at the topmost of the screen. Also, it places itself at the middle of the screen when no window is open (i.e on startup).

Here is my yabar.conf file. No errors are listed on the terminal when yabar is initiated.

Thanks for the report.

It looks like you're using Openbox, is that correct? I haven't encountered this issue with tiling WMs, so this could be a specific issue with this WM or stacking WMs in general. I'll see if I can find any workarounds/solutions for this.

Also, just in case, make sure you're on the latest commit.

+1 @NBonaparte can you try with master? I had that issue with i3 but was fixed last week!

Wasn't this #96? If it's, it was already fixed in #92. I guess you're using the stable version of some distro.

@NBonaparte Yes, I'm using Openbox. I will try updating some stuff when I get the time. Thanks.
