Howto debug or log what is going on?

[niksfirefly]

I use latest i3-layouts with Python 3.7.0 on Ubuntu 20.04 and It is not working at all

For example i3l vstack 0.6 gives {"success":true} and no changes

I also tried execute on start of i3 from config - not working too Is there any way to debug this situation?

regards

Hey @niksfirefly ,

Thanks for trying i3-layouts. You can launch i3-layouts with the --debug flag to get some output. For example, in your i3 config file:

exec_always i3-layouts --debug > ~/i3-layouts.log 2>&1

If you do so, can you report the logs here ?

Hello, @eliep! Same here. It launches only from terminal and this way everything is ok.

It is not launching from i3/config and even from a separate bash script or through bindsym.

how it looks (normal, i suppose) when i launch it from a terminal:

Install it with your package manager rather than pip or give it the absolute path of i3-layouts
