Overview blur does not work sometimes on dual monitors

[Its-Juice]

Hi. I am on F38 on wayland and sometimes when i press the super key to go into the overview the primary monitor's blur doesn't activate. Here's a ss. I do not know how else to explain it.

Same for me, on Wayland the blur vanishes from the primary display only. Works perfectly though on X11.

I have the same problem. Again only on Wayland, nothing to report on X11.

thanks, it fixed itself. Not the ideal solution tho. I would love a wayland fix.

I have some weird fix if you place your monitors in a different angle (the monitor that works is a little higher than the main monitor) so then both will work i have no idea why but it worked for me so in gnome settings just try to change the position of your monitors

as i said, while this might fix it, it isn't ideal.

Yeah, I am having the same issue (also using Fedora 38). Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this issue on wayland? That way I might try fixing it.

I do not think there's a fix for it in wayland yet. I switched to X11 and had zero issues. It isn't the ideal fix but it works.

Same issue here on wayland. Using archlinux

UPDATE: I have completely removed the extension since X11 is notoriously bad on multiple displays. Unless there's a fix on this i will not be using it anymore.

I have the same issue. When I use Super key the blur is working on both displays, it doesn't work when using hot corner.

I'm experiencing the same issue as OP. Also on F38 and Wayland. Interestingly Super key and moving the mouse to the upper left corner gives me an app drawer without blur but when I click Show Apps it (sometimes) does give me a blurred background in the app drawer.

Same. Ubuntu 23.04, Wayland, dual monitor setup with 4K display on the left and ThinkPad on the right. Sometimes, Super key is giving me blur on both displays, other times the 4K display background remains black, only the laptop screen on the right gets the colored blur.

UPDATE 2: Nothing has happened with updating the extension.

FIX: It's a weird one. Just move the monitors a microscopic bit out of alignment. It should work!

[stasys-hub]

I am experiencing the exact same Problem. I am on arch using wayland.

Hello, could you try runnning blur-my-shell from the PR #546? I changed the way multiple monitors are managed so it should be better (maybe, I couldn't test it on multiple monitors hehe)

Issue still present on Gnome 46 (Wayland) + Archlinux

[DodoLeDev]

I found that the alignment of monitors seems to have an effect:

Moreover, it's buggy with the lockscreen, and only works when the display name is shown :

Date & time shown	Username shown

That seems to be related to @Colon101 workaround? I found it to work at the moment, but forces me to have the display layout in a non-intuitive structure,

UPDATE 3: After a while i just stopped using the extension all together. This bug is way too annoying for me to keep using this extension.

Fixed! @Its-Juice you may want to come back
