Default background image does not load at startup

[Virgula0]

When I log in my acconut a black screen is shown as background, in order to show the background correctly I have every time to switch from V[1-3] back to my V[1-3] by clicking the button.

Any suggestion for this error?

Hello, on the V4 I seen that bug myself but it only happens once right after the install and once the theme is switched from dark to light it would not happen again (in my experience at least). Have you considered giving V4 a try?

[Virgula0]

Hi, thanks for your reply. It do not happens always but only sometimes when I boot arch. I'd like to know if I need to do a fresh install to update to V4 or if I only need to update hyperland config from V4 repo. Also, I have the doubt to have already installed a more recent version which is V3 probably (so not this repo where I opened the issue), since I deleted the repo locally I don't remember exactly which version I ran. Is there a chance to check which version of your script I have installed? P.s: weather stats are also broken on this version. This is my config which I modified a little in order to add a resize and full size of windows from keyboard, maybe it can help you to understand which version of the script I ran.

Hello, you can use the set_hypr script to install V4 on top of V3 and it shouldn't be an issue. The "V" icon in the bar would tell you the version you are on and since V3 is the highest you can switch to then its most likely V3, also looking at the posted hyprland.conf it appears you are on V3. During the install of V4 your config files would be overwritten. The script would attempt to back them up for you but I still recommend you have your own backup just in case. Please let me know how the upgrade to V4 went and if it resolved the issue. Thank you.

[Virgula0]

Ok so I can run ./set_hypr from ~ and since all other tools are installed I can skip directly to the copy config section if I am right

[SolDoesTech]

correct, clone the HyprV4 repo and execute the ./set_hypr and you can tell it to install packages if you like it would make sure everything needed is installed and whatever is already installed it would skip. Before you do that you can take a look at the top of the script, the packages that are going to be reviewed and installed are listed. Once the install is complete you can tell the script to copy the config, it should attempt to backup your existing config.

[Virgula0]

I updated to V4 and everything seems to work fine, I'll update here if the bug shows up again but until now it seems fine. Now I can delete hypr-back right? Also, would you consider to add some useful config to hyprland.conf such as:

# Full screen the current window
bind =  $mainMod, F ,fullscreen 

# Resize windows from terminal
bind = $mainMod SHIFT, right, resizeactive, 10 0
bind = $mainMod SHIFT, left, resizeactive, -10 0
bind = $mainMod SHIFT, up, resizeactive, 0 -10
bind = $mainMod SHIFT, down, resizeactive, 0 10

I can make a PR on V4 if you want.

However, weather conditions seems to be still broken indicating a temperature of 77 celsius degree

[SolDoesTech]

Can you please provide details to where you see that? Is it the icon on the waybar or is it after you hover and get the tooltip?

[Virgula0]

Both:

Also, I noticed that the bug of the wallpaper happens when there is no internet connection at login. I'll do better checks.

[SolDoesTech]

Please edit the following file: ~/.config/HyprV/hyprv.conf and set/confirm the following: SET_MESU="M" if you had to change the conf file then you will need to switch from light o dark theme to see the change apply.

[Virgula0]

Thanks, weather stats seems to be fine now. For now I think it's enough, going to close the issue.
