Resize issue with urxvt
When the urxvt terminal is resized (for example by adding new windows), it cuts off the output of the terminal. Here is a video demonstrating this:
I create some lengthy output by executing for i in {1..10} ; do echo $TERM ; done and then I add new terminal windows in the vertical split container. After adding the 4th terminal window, the bottom border of the first window overlaps with the content of the window and cuts off the overlapping portion. When I return to this window, the content remains cut off and no prompt is visible until I press a key. The second half of the video demonstrates that this problem is not present with xterm.
How can this problem be solved?
- i3 config: http://pastie.org/private/x8qy84dm3ed...
- No custom
.Xdefaultsor.Xresourcesconfig used
That's a problem in urxvt, not i3, so I suggest you report it there.
Here - http://superuser.com/questions/442589/xmonad-urxvt-issue-text-disappears-after-resizing - is a workaround. Although I would replace `$LINE` by a number that is greater than the maximum of lines fitting on your screen, if you often close and reopen terminals in the same container.
