hyprctl/hyprpaper: monitor wildcard not working

[ppenguin]

Hyprland Version

main 4986d74

Bug or Regression?

Bug

Description

When hyprpaper is configured to preload one image like so:

# hyprpaper.conf
preload = ~/.cache/styli.sh/wallpaper.jpg
wallpaper = ,~/.cache/styli.sh/wallpaper.jpg

and two monitors are connected, starting hyprpaper shows the image on both monitors.

However, when the image is replaced and reloaded with

hyprctl hyprpaper unload "~/.cache/styli.sh/wallpaper.jpg" && hyprctl hyprpaper preload "~/.cache/styli.sh/wallpaper.jpg"

the expectation is that executing

hyprctl hyprpaper wallpaper ',~/.cache/styli.sh/wallpaper.jpg'

shows the new image on all monitors.

This is not the case, the only way to refresh the image on both monitors is to explicitly do

hyprctl hyprpaper wallpaper 'DP-1,~/.cache/styli.sh/wallpaper.jpg'
hyprctl hyprpaper wallpaper 'DP-2,~/.cache/styli.sh/wallpaper.jpg'

i have this issue too. hyprpaper is clearly receiving the request for a wallpaper, but isn't switching the images.

these are the logs i have:

[LOG] Accepted incoming socket connection request on fd 5

Imho, should be moved to hyprpaper git repo since it's a hyprpaper bug (I guess).

IIRC this was even fixed
