Reflow issue: contents of the windows cropped, not justified in different layouts

Open zenny opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

Hi,

In my case the contents of the windows gets either cropped or not properly displayed (not justified) when switched between different layouts.

When I run 'ls -lasomething ingrid` layout, I get:

pic-selected-210117-2329-44

When I change the layout to horizontal, the texts are cropped:

pic-selected-210117-2330-23

Upon changing to the max layout:

pic-selected-210117-2332-16

Thus, it is not limited only to manpages. It does not happen in other tiling managers like i3 and dwm, fyi.

Any clue?

This looks very specific to the terminal emulator used. (Here, I don't have this issue with urxvt, and also with sakuar, it seems fine).

You could be right. Or is there any specific stuff that prevent the reflow in my end? However, it works fine with dwm even with St, fyi!

Anyway this seems to be an issue with suckless's 'stterminal emulator as @t-wissmann pointed out. Evenst` works as desired when piped through tmux buffer. Thanks!

The reflow is not working in urxvt either at my end:

How does your urxvt config look like?

I doubt that there is a configuration option in my config that helps with that. But here are my .Xdefaults: https://github.com/t-wissmann/dotfiles/blob/master/Xdefaults
