Current Behavior

When opening a new single window in an empty workspace, the borders are straight and not rounded, making me going floating mode and back to tiled to see the expected effect

Expected Behavior

Having rounded corners from the start, as soon as opening any new program.

Reproduction Instructions

Opening any program in an empty workspace

Can confirm. Happens to some corners on some windows, otherwise round corners aren't set without reloading, which only applies to workspace one.

I am working with my own fork of i3, which has this merged into it. Basically an updated resloved/i3.

This behavior seems to solve itself after restarting i3 completely

[5HT2]

Nevermind, sometimes it comes back. Super inconsistent.

[resloved]

I'm not seeing the behavior after following the steps given. I'd need more reproduction steps sadly.

@S-B99 in particular I'd need steps from this fork not yours. I don't want to take into account anything from upstream (although I will have to merge eventually, but that's for another day and another issue)

[5HT2]

I've tried your fork as well and I have the same issue. Sorry I didn't provide a ton of detail. It happens when opening some windows on a blank workspace, opening another window fixes it for all windows.

[5HT2]

[resloved]

Fresh workspace doesn't seem to be an issue for me.

It's going to be hard for me to track down without more information sadly. Could be a timing thing, something with your environment, or maybe I'm just reproducing it wrong. I'll leave this open, but I probably won't look into it unless a lot more people are running into this issue or something more concrete is found.

[5HT2]

Ugh, sorry about that. Is your dotfiles repo current?

[resloved]

I just pushed a commit with some random changes so /dots should be up to date now.

If you want an alternative for rounded corners and already use compton take a look at this pull request.

[5HT2]

I see you updated it just now. I'll try a fresh vm after exams and try to replicate it.

[5HT2]

Oh lkasdkas you commented c:
