Hyprbars: Add vertical Decoration Support

[nine7nine]

It would be very interesting (if possible) to add vertical decoration support to Hyprbars, similar to what is possible with AwesomeWM: https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/15ei050/awesome_another_awesomewm_rice/

Aside from uniqueness / flashy-ness, it does save 'real estate' with vertical pixels, and at least in my case: it's more 'left-handed friendly'.

as an aside: I'm looking forward to when the decoration and floating/stacking window support is improved in Hyprland. ~ At the point it is a bit more usable: Hyprland + Aylur's GTK Shell becomes a viable alternative to the big DEs (like Gnome / KDE) for me. The best tiling WM + Stacking WM option will be killer.

also, I'm sure you are aware, but Hyprbars doesn't compile, ATM... I think due to some recent refactor in Hyprland - I get the following errors:

g++ -shared -fPIC --no-gnu-unique -g -std=c++2b -Wno-c++11-narrowing `pkg-config --cflags pixman-1 libdrm hyprland pangocairo` main.cpp barDeco.cpp  -o hyprbars.so `pkg-config --libs pangocairo`

hb compiles just fine, looks like you didn't sudo make pluginenv

ah, thanks - fixed it. I was building from the AUR - so i just modified the PKGBUILD.

I would love to have complex titlebars on hyprland, it's literally the only thing holding me back from awesomewm.

[beckkake]

second this. the ability to switch the sides the titlebars are on, or add them on all sides, would be nice

Thirding this, as it would save vertical space on 16:9 and even further ratio monitors.
