Hi,
That's exactly how you should specify the font. :-)
Check your logs, that's probably not a valid font description. After
"xft:", you can specify any Pango font description. I personally use
"font xft:Sans 8".
So I switched to a simpler one, "font Consolas 10". Problem still. In
the log there is a line
ERROR: Could not open font xft:Consolas 10 (X error 15). Trying
fallback to 'fixed'.
and far below that, just before I restart i3:
[src/xcb.c:945] ERROR: Could not open font. X Error Code: 15
Weird since src/xcb.c doesn't has line 945... I also noticed that
i3bar disappeared too, but there is no log message related to that.
src/xcb.c:945 is in i3bar/src/xcb.c (it's probably i3bar's stderr).
The "xft:" prefix is only handled if your i3 is patched, which leads
me to think that you're getting that message from an unpatched
i3/i3bar.
