I was trying to use the -n option for i3lock in i3lock-fancy to use in a helper script but it doesn't work.

#!/bin/bash
killall compton
i3lock-fancy -npg
compton

I want to kill compton before run the i3lock-fancy but this script only work with i3lock.

@squiter why don't you run this script as your lock mechanism, I have noticed the tool has been changed the older options are not there so you should just create a script for locking then execute it with your bind key.

"doesn't work" doesn't say anything. The script otherwise passes on the -n parameter to i3lock{,-color} and both projects still support this parameter.
