[Feature Request] Prevent Waybar from hiding. #3387

Open Neuropain opened 3 months ago

Neuropain commented 3 months ago

Hi, I'm using Waybar with Wayfire and when I have a fullscreen or "Windowed Fullscreen" application, mostly games, and I use Wayfires "Scale" plugin or any kind of window switcher Waybar is becomes hidden. The only way to resolve this is by changing the "Mode" to "dock", but then I can't interact with Waybar while I use the "Scale" plugin or any window switcher.

To clarify, the "Scale" plugin puts all windows on a workspace in a loose grid spaced evenly apart, you can then click on one to focus it and exit the scale view with that window at the front, during this I want to be able to interact with Waybar. This has been made to work on the Wayfire side, as long as Waybars "layer" is "top".

Would it be possible to either have a way of preventing Waybar from hiding or making it interactable with "Mode": "dock" during such events?

Thanks in advance.
