Hi,
I have tried, to the best of my ability ( 
) to figure things out about configuring i3 but some perhaps obvious things for more advanced users are still escaping me.
Here are a couple of them:
I would appreciate your guidance to achieve this.
look @ line 291 ( think ) in i3 config … save a copy of config
then `
set $ws1 “1”
set $ws2 “2”
set $ws3 “3”
set $ws4 “4”
set $ws5 “5”
set $ws6 “6”
set $ws7 “7”
set $ws8 “8”`
look like you have font missing or play around 
EDit… tray i no sure ( never use + no use i3blocks ) my guess it be set in i3block config
am not quite sure it’s been a long time since I’ve tried i3blocks
try to comment to two line
in your i3wm config
#tray_output primary
#tray_padding 0
This worked perfectly!
Thank you so much @Shjim!
Playing around, for sure 
How could you tell that fonts are missing?
Would you mind having a look?

change padding …
normal EOS i3 block have icon . so = you delete font or play around . i see you play now 
EDit … Best way learn remember bkup before try change
be careful not to use nerd font when using i3block or i3status
Thanks @anon12581665 for the sugeestion!
Unfortunately that didn’t seem to be working.
I could live with how it is but would be nice to have a couple of pixels space between them. Aesthetically more balanced.
did you restart i3?
This^^
Sure, I will make backups. Some damage might have been done already though. However things seems to be working alright.
Yes. After saving file, Shift+$mod+r
Also logged out and back in.
will you put your i3 config
so i can try?
yes i now this config
but maybe it was his own
okay i’m trying eos default config
but i have many nerd font installed 
but i will try
Yes, it is the one from EnOS.
are you use i3status or i3blocks?
Yes.
Those were set up when I installed EnOS. I posted them a bit further up.
Here:
I have changed those somewhat but I didn’t see anything regarding the systray.
Since we are at it… I tried to download the eos i3wm theming and everything seems to work.
The $ws1 has a symbol for terminal instead of the number, but I like to have something like:
“1:>_”
Oddly when I add “1:”, it does not appear in the bar.
Just "1" should work without :
That’s quite nice but I prefer not having any specific workspace tied to an app.
