Bar is Displayed on wrong monitors (Dual Monitor) #636

SeeWeedX · 2024-12-26T16:37:10Z

Describe the bug
Using a dual monitor laptop, the bars are being displayed on the wrong screens.

The top (main) screen shows the bar for the bottom screen (workspaces shows the bottom screen's workspaces) and vice versa.

Expected behavior
Bars should be swapped around to be in the correct screens.

Screenshots

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Distribution: Arch Linux
Window Manager/Desktop Environment: Hyprland

Unfortunately Gdk monitor IDs can get out of sync with Hyprland monitor IDs. There is some logic that exists currently to handle this but even it has limits. Could you share with me the output of your hyprland monitors please? Perhaps there are some gaps in that logic that can be fixed.

I assume you meant hyprctl monitors

Is it possible to manually set my monitor IDs for Hyprpanel?

I think you are right no idea why they are inverted now, it was never like that before, they did match up before

output from hyprpanel --inspector

Apparently my GTK geometry is entirely different from my actual (Hyprland) resolution...

IDK if GTK geometry is supposed to have the same dimensions as my resolution but for me, this causes hyprpanel to use the fallbackMonitor.id

You could maybe include another check to check the width / height ratio with GTK and HyprLand.

Daholli · 2025-01-02T12:03:46Z

Interesting my resoltutions are correct, but the positions are incorrect

SeeWeedX · 2025-01-03T10:44:51Z

Seems like changing the monitor scale with hyprland.conf changes the Geometry of GTK.

So if your scale is not 1.0, GTK Geometry will not match with hyprland's monitor resolution.

So the right way would be to calculate GTK resolution with GTK Geometry / Hyprland Resolution

I have the same issue, the workspaces are shown on the wrong monitor.

Is this happening for you guys after waking from sleep or right off the bat?

SeeWeedX · 2025-01-08T08:31:54Z

Happens all the time for me from the moment I installed HyprPanel.

I kinda worked around it by completely removing the third check and letting the last resort sort it out, and it works for me.

simonkampe · 2025-01-08T11:55:54Z

Is this happening for you guys after waking from sleep or right off the bat?

Right away, every time, as far as I have tested.

I tried to set two different bar configurations "0"/"eDP-1" and "1" and the correct configuration showed on the monitors, but the workspace indicators were switched around.

Daholli · 2025-01-08T12:45:50Z

Yeah same for me.

simonkampe · 2025-01-10T06:26:17Z

On my triple-monitor setup at work the following happens:

Monitor 0 shows workspaces for monitor 2
Monitor 1 shows workspaces for monitor 1 (correct)
Monitor 2 shows workspaces for monitor 0

I do not have more monitors right now to test, but they seem reversed.

I can reproduce this as well. On my triple-monitor setup at work the following happens:

Monitor 0 (laptop) shows workspaces for monitor 0 (OK)
Monitor 1 shows workspaces for monitor 2
Monitor 2 shows workspaces for monitor 1

Let me know if I can to anything to help or debug 👍
