[x] Bug [ ] Feature Request [ ] Documentation Request [ ] Other (Please describe in detail)
I simulated an error message for a project I'm working on _(where I plan to recommend i3 for the WM, and provide a custom configuration to use with it)_, and found that the text gets cut off, and/or hidden behind buttons.


_Ignore the red error text in i3bar, as I'll be using a different status bar provider later on._
The text should be soft wrapped, so that the full message is visible, and not cut off nor hidden behind buttons.
i3-nagbar command with a long amount of text.i3-nagbar -t error -m "Project Barry startup failed for the following reason: Unable to find Calibre in directories indicated in your PATH variable." -f "pango:Liberation Serif 10" -B "Restart i3" "i3-msg restart"
## Environment
I'm using the version 4.16.1 provided in the Debian 10 "main" repository.
Output of `i3 --moreversion 2>&-`:
Binary i3 version: 4.16.1 (2019-01-27) © 2009 Michael Stapelberg and contributors
Running version: < 4.2-200
I had posted my configuration file on Pastebin [here](https://pastebin.com/bpmsh8w0), and it's primarily the default configuration, with some elements copied from a separate configuration file I'll be using for the project.
Logfile URL:
- Linux Distribution & Version: Debian 10 on "testing" branch, inside a schroot environment on the same distro version/branch on the host - Are you using a compositor (e.g., xcompmgr or compton): No.
I don’t see a link to logs.i3wm.org. Did you follow https://i3wm.org/docs/debugging.html? (In case you actually provided a link to a logfile, please ignore me.)
APT in my test environment is broken, so I can't install bzip2 and curl to be able to send the log. I think I'll rebuild the environment, when I have the time to do so.
https://github.com/i3/i3/issues/2765#issuecomment-326362037:
i3-nagbar is to be used only by i3, and as such should only contain the features we absolutely need in i3. Adding features upon user request for non-i3-internal use-cases is a slippery slope.
@orestisfl Thanks a bunch! It looks like I'll have to find a way to redirect commands sent to i3-nagbar and swaynag over to something else. I hope it's possible.
