No borders on nautilus about i3 HOT 8 CLOSED

I had this issue when making use of for_window [class="^.*"] border pixel 0 or new_window/float none
Using only:

for_window [class="^.*"] border pixel 4

gaps and borders work on all windows, including csd, contrary to the README's requirements.

Do they come back when you float the window? I think it removes its decorations because it thinks that it's maximized. It's just a guess though. It can probably be fixed in the gtk theme.

Since this is not an issue of my fork, can you please ask this question over at faq.i3wm.org? I'll close the issue here for that reason. Maybe disable gaps when showing it there though :)

No, they don't come back on floating mode. If I close compton borders works.

I'm still convinced it's not an issue of my fork. Also, I use thunar and can see borders just fine. Can you post your .compton.conf? I'd still advise taking this to maybe the compton repository, then.

https://github.com/PCMan/gtk3-nocsd solved the problem.

Glad it worked out!

@beanaroo I agree that the README is a bit misleading. Actually, as you found, you can set any border width. What you can't do with gaps is the "normal" borders (i.e., with title decoration), because then i3 starts creating pixmaps.

I've updated the README a bit.
