This seems far from the default rc.lua. What awesomeWM version are you using? Try editing the actual default config by adding margins = 10 in awful.wibar {}. Works for me on awesome v4.3-1681-g0f950cbb6-dirty.

It is the default rc.lua just little bit modified for rounded corners for clients. And if you @MinePro120 have read the rc.lua.txt you would find that i hv written the margins property as like you hv said

My awesome version --
awesome v4.3(too long)
Compiled against Lua 5.3.6(running with Lua 5.3)
D-Bus support :✓
execinfo support:✓
xcb-randr version: 1.6
LGI version: 0.9.2

Output by the command awesome -v

This seems to me like awesome 4.3, which is 6 years old. Try the git version and the current default config. I use the git version myself and I can say it's pretty stable.

@saboo6251 the wibar margin property is only part of the git version. You use 4.3, so it has no effect for you. See the documentation for the full list of properties available https://awesomewm.org/doc/api/classes/awful.wibar.html

Next time, please follow the issue template to help us solve your problems quickly.
