After renaming, name is displayed only on the first workspace

[Artalus]

The title pretty much says it. All the workspaces are properly named and names are shown in i3-msg 'get_workspaces', but only the first one is displayed in the panel.

I cannot reproduce this. I have multiple named namespaces in my bar. However, it seems that you may be defining them beforehand in your i3 config file and I always rename them dynamically. So maybe reading the workspace names is at startup is broken (just a guess).

I cannot try this right now but you can try to execute commands dynamically to see if renaming works:

$ i3-msg 'workspace 1:whatever' 
# Open a window in the new workspace 
$ i3-msg 'workspace 2:foo'
# Open a window ...

If you see all the new workspace names, not just the first, this means the rename event works properly, but the names are not read correctly at startup.
