I think +what's happening is that there are two bars drawn, but the short bar +is always on top of the long bar such that I can't see the information +under the short bar. If I switch to the small screen, hide the short +bar, and then switch to the large screen, the long bar is drawn +correctly. + +A similar problem occurs when I have started dwm on a small resolution +monitor (laptop screen) and then I switch to a large external display. +When I do this, the bar itself is drawn for the original smaller +resolution, but the information to be printed on the bar is +right-aligned for a longer bar. So what I see is a bar that has the +right hand side of it cut-off. See attached screenshot. + +I am using standard options for xrandr such as --output VGA1 --auto, etc. + +---
