Current Behavior

There is no option to specify the size of the unlock indicater which looks to big on my screen

Expected Behavior

There is an option for the size of the unlock indicater like:

i3lock -size10

Environment

Output of i3lock --version:

which looks to[o] big on my screen

How do you define "too big", i.e. what is the problem with its size? We generally don't want to extend i3lock with features that only acommodate personal visual preferences.

It's entirely useable but not preferable (I think it's because I have a small laptop screen that is the primary screen so it scales correctly for that but therefore breaks my big moniter I plug in)

Can you provide a picture please?

Thanks for the picture. AFAICT, that’s how the unlock indicator is supposed to look.

If you feel strongly about it looking different, you could try an i3lock fork such as https://github.com/Raymo111/i3lock-color (maybe its --ring-width option does what you’re looking for?), or modify the source yourself.
