System icons at the end of the bar

[arcolinuxz]

Just wanted to ask if there should be any system icons on the top right in the bar? Or is hypr created that way?

icons we would see are typically

• networkmanager
• bluetooth
• variety
• telegram
• discord
• flameshot
• sound

You need to have the tray widget

Which I can't see in your config

[arcolinuxz]

I copy/pasted the code in from the example

I see no system icons.

after copying the complete example config I see this

[vaxerski]

Again, tray is not saved as per

open an app AFTER the tray is launched and it will appear

[arcolinuxz]

If I understand correctly then the system icons of applications will appear only after the bar is loaded and then the app is started.

I have tried 0 and 1 in the no_tray_saving.

I have tried adding tray but it will not show any icon.

Tested with telegram and discord.

This is your code.

module=left,,0xff7000dd,0xff7000dd,1,tray

and this is mine

Anything wrong here?

Thanks! consider adding Hyprland as well, as most of the development has shifted there!

[arcolinuxz]

I hope you still work on hypr as anything wayland seems not to work here virtualbox or real metal

[vaxerski]

I maintain hypr, so that it works, but not really add any new features. Regarding hl - in VirtualBox remember to enable software rendering via WLR_RENDERER_ALLOW_SOFTWARE=1, for real metal, as long as you're not on nvidia it should just work ootb. For nvidia, there is a wiki page here

[arcolinuxz]

and where does this code go WLR_RENDERER_ALLOW_SOFTWARE=1

[arcolinuxz]

did an export .... in my bashrc that was not working

[vaxerski]

it's an envvar for Hyprland itself, bashrc might not work. WLR_RENDERER_ALLOW_SOFTWARE=1 Hyprland
