Thanks! Yeah, the problem is that askpass specifies size flags in WM_SIZE_HINTS, but doesn't set useful values (it just says 0x0). i3 then falls back to the floating minimum size, which by default is 75x50. You should file this as a bug against keepass. keepass should either not set these flags in the size hints or give them a reasonable value.
It should be noted that these values in the size hints are considered obsolete[1], but that doesn't mean they won't (or shouldn't) be interpreted. That's what the flag mask is for. :) [1] https://tronche.com/gui/x/xlib/ICC/client-to-window-manager/wm-normal-hints.html Ingo On 11/03/2015 06:51 PM, Dieter Plaetinck wrote: > the i3 log, obtained via i3-dump-log as described on the debugging web page. > http://logs.i3wm.org/logs/5652536396611584.bz2 > FWIW this was a minimal i3 session, i quit all my apps, just had a termite > terminal so i could invoke ssh-add and the i3-dump-log, and it also had a bar > running, but nothing else. > > xprop and xwininfo -all output: > https://gist.github.com/Dieterbe/93ec75c6e891a04b8776 > > > > > On Tue, 3 Nov 2015 18:09:10 -0500 > Ingo Bürk <ad...@airblader.de> wrote: > >> Thanks.
