Dashboard user profile image not shown correctly and my workaround.

[smb374]

There's some problem of the profile image in the dash board, as the screenshot below shown:

The frame is not correctly clip to my profile image.
After some research, I fixed it:

My workaround:
amarena.diff:

--- User widget
-local user_picture_container = wibox.container.background()
--- user_picture_container.shape = gears.shape.circle
-user_picture_container.shape = helpers.prrect(dpi(40), true, true, false, true)
-user_picture_container.forced_height = dpi(140)
-user_picture_container.forced_width = dpi(140)
 local user_picture = wibox.widget {
     {
-        wibox.widget.imagebox(user.profile_picture),
-        widget = user_picture_container
+        {
+            {
+                widget = wibox.widget.imagebox,
+                image = user.profile_picture,
+                clip_shape = helpers.rrect(box_radius / 2),
+            },
+            shape = helpers.prrect(dpi(40), true, true, false, true),
+            layout = wibox.container.background
+        },
+        halign = 'center',
+        valign = 'center',
+        layout = wibox.container.place
     },
-    shape = helpers.rrect(box_radius / 2),
-    widget = wibox.container.background
+    height = dpi(140),
+    width = dpi(140),
+    layout = wibox.container.constraint
 }
 local username = os.getenv("USER")
 local user_text = wibox.widget.textbox(username:upper())

It seems like wibox.container.background will auto stretch to fit the width while the imagebox remains at its original place, left aligned.
As a result, the visual effect will be like the one shown in the first screenshot.
My approach is to use wibox.container.place to place it at the center and use wibox.container.constraint to limit its max size rather than using forced_width & forced_hight for a better visual effect.

I had the same issue. Your solution worked for me too. Thanks!
