I finally got around to tweaking my xmonad.hs and had to start using avoidStruts but, it doesn't work with xmobar with a Static position. Works fine with the other positions: Top, Bottom, etc, but with Static, xmonad seems to not know it exists.
So here is a clue. It appears that the Static position doesn't export it's dimensions. Here is xprop on xmobar run with Top position: andrew@basement:~$ xprop _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE(ATOM) = _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DOCK _NET_WM_STRUT_PARTIAL(CARDINAL) = 0, 0, 18, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1279, 0, 0 and xprop of xmobar with Static position: andrew@basement:~$ xprop _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE(ATOM) = _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DOCK _NET_WM_STRUT_PARTIAL(CARDINAL) = 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 so I guess it's safe to say this is an xmobar problem?
