Maybe it's a bug. If I change the clock for the systray in the code above, i.e.:
systray_margin:set_margins(5)
systray_margin:set_widget(mytextclock)
right_layout:add(systray_margin)
end
--right_layout:add(mytextclock)
it works just fine, margins included. The systray won't work even with
margins = 0. Should I report this or is it a PEBKAC?
Cheers
