https://regolith-linux.org/docs/howtos/override-xres/ You can put it in any of the paths mentioned on this page.

https://regolith-linux.org/docs/reference/xresources/ all the xresources keys used by regolith are listed here.

https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#_constraining_floating_window_size

Just skimmed the i3wm docs and it looks like you can set the max height and width for all floating windows. Might want to try that.

The issue with it is that it only checks for that atom to be the first in the array. To make it a bit more stable you'd have to check more indices. In compton there was no way to just check for "includes", unfortunately, not sure if picom added that possibility.

See https://github.com/chjj/compton/issues/403#issuecomment-326798836 and https://github.com/chjj/compton/issues/408

See an example here: https://regolith-linux.org/docs/howtos/override-xres/#example---launch-nm-applet-when-i3-starts

If you want to dive a bit deeper it might be a good idea to read the regolith i3 config file, most settings have an xresource override set up.

I also recommend joining the official slack for further support.

There is some information here, I think a lot of people ran into this issue when 1.4 released:

https://regolith-linux.org/docs/howto/add-remove-blocklets/

​

There's also a new meta package in 1.5 called `regolith-desktop-mobile`, hopefully in the future the installer can install it automatically. A laptop with no battery indicator feels pretty broken.

So, in the new version, which blocks appear on the bar is controlled by which i3xrocks plugins are installed.

When I installed the new version I had to install them all one by one, but it looks like you want to remove one. This section of the configuration guide and also this page explain this.

This should show you which i3xrocks plugins are installed. apt list --installed | grep "^i3xrocks-"

I didn't touch the i3xrocks config at all.

I would say what you're looking for is both here and here.

It's recommended to not stage your own copy of the i3 config for exactly the reason that caused this problem - they might change it, and new versions of the other components might depend on things that are in there.

Same thing happened to me, now every info status from the bar is a different package. You Just need to follow the new documentation https://regolith-linux.org/docs/howto/add-remove-blocklets/ and install the packages that you want.

I agree with u/lioploum, but if you're willing to test and deal with bugs, upgrade instructions are here.

If you mean that you don't see the icon in the app tray, by default there is no app tray enabled in the bar in Regolith. To enable this on version 1.3.1 and above, add the following line to ~/config/regolith/Xresources:

i3-wm.bar.trayoutput: primary

Then press <Super><Shift><R> to refresh the session. If copyq is installed and running you should now see it in the app tray on the right side of the bar.

Xresource values for Regolith can be found here: https://regolith-linux.org/docs/reference/xresources/
