Bug or Regression?

Bug

Description

When clicking on a empty workspace on a monitor that does not have focus, I expect that workspace and monitor to obtain focus. However, it does not.

How to reproduce

• Have swaybg render a nice background image
• Have follow_mouse set to either 0 or 2
• Have a multi monitor setup:
  • Monitor A: this has focus
  • Monitor B: this does not have focus, and does not have any windows (so an empty workspace)
• Click on the desktop B: It does not obtain focus.
  • (If a window is on monitor B, then clikcing it will result in the workpsace/monitor to obtain focus)

Note: I can mitigate this by enabling mouse_move_focuses_monitor, but I would prefer that to be off. Moving the mouse and clicking the mouse are two distinct operations.

is this still a thing?

Hey @vaxerski, thanks for getting back and sorry for neglecting this issue. I've since moved back to Sway. If I return to hyprland in the future and encounter this issue, I'll make a new issue.

Closing.
