[BUG]: Komorebi bar only opens the bar on the monitor where my cursor is present

saipavanc commented 1 month ago

Summary

I have the following configuration for komorebi bar in my dual monitor setup. When I am launching the wm with komorebi start --bar --whkd, I noticed that the bar would launch on the monitor where my cursor is present. If the cursor is present in the monitor of the same index as the one in bar.json file, it works out to be fine. Otherwise, the bar is half rendered behind the windows on the wrong monitor, even though the workspace pager shows the correct workspaces for the monitor index in the config file. I also could not figure out a way to have two bars on my two monitors. Looked for it online forums as well as the config, was not obvious at all. Thanks for all the great work! Windows finally seems usable.

No KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME detected, defaulting to C:\Users\username

Looking for configuration files in C:\Users\username

Found komorebi.json; this file can be passed to the start command with the --config flag

Found C:\Users\username\.config\whkdrc; key bindings will be loaded from here when whkd is started, and you can start it automatically using the --whkd flag

Hello and thanks for the report. There are currently a bunch of fixes for various bar issues on the latest nightly release.

To avoid duplicating effort please first confirm if you can reproduce these issues on the nightly release.

saipavanc commented 1 month ago

I tried to install the nightly from winget, it seems like it is not accessible.

winget install LGUG2Z.komorebi.Nightly

Download request status is not success.

Otherwise, is building from source the only option?

LGUG2Z commented 1 month ago

Another thing for me to fix when I'm back from vacation 😅

Yes, until I have a computer to fix the nightly builds, you'll need to build from source, or download the artifacts from the GitHub actions run on a recent commit.

To set expectations: probably don't expect any movement on this for 2 weeks or so.

Also the komorebi bar version that you're running does not support running on more than one monitor (ie. It is an explicit design decision to only support a single monitor)

saipavanc commented 1 month ago

I see, thanks for letting me know, that makes sense now. I do not think it was mentioned anywhere that it is specifically supported for a single monitor setup, making that clear would hep the confusion. I can try and use another bar like yasb.

No worries, enjoy your vacation! I will try to build this from source when I will have more time. I have another question about the initial-workspace-rule, but I can open another issue for it.
