I am on Ubuntu 23.10, x64 machine, everything up to date and using Wayland.
I am enjoying waybar a lot and playing with configuration I managed to obtain two different bars, one on the top and one on the bottom.
Problem is: the top one eludes windows (i.e. maximizing a window does not cover it) while the bottom one does not (i.e. maximizing a window covers it completely).
My waybar config is the following:
[ { // Basic infos"name": "header","layer": "top", // Disposition"modules-left": ["custom/launcher","cpu","memory","custom/media","network" ],"modules-center": ["tray" ],"modules-right": ["backlight","pulseaudio","clock","battery" ], // Built-in modules"pulseaudio": {"tooltip": false,"scroll-step": 5,"format": "{icon} {volume}%","format-muted": "{icon} {volume}%","format-icons": {"default": ["","","" ] } },"network": {"tooltip": false,"format-wifi": " {essid}","format-ethernet": "","on-click": "/usr/bin/systemsettings kcm_networkmanagement" },"backlight": {"tooltip": false,"format": " {}%","interval": 1,"on-scroll-up": "light -A 5","on-scroll-down": "light -U 5" },"battery": {"states": {"good": 95,"warning": 30,"critical": 20 },"format": "{icon} {capacity}%","format-charging": " {capacity}%","format-plugged": " {capacity}%","format-alt": "{time} {icon}","format-icons": ["","","","","" ] },"tray": {"icon-size": 21,"spacing": 10 },"clock": {"format": "{: %I:%M %p %d/%m/%Y}","on-click": "/usr/bin/plasmawindowed org.kde.plasma.calendar" },"cpu": {"interval": 2,"format": " {}%","max-length": 10,"on-click": "konsole -e btop" },"memory": {"interval": 2,"format": " {}%","max-length": 10,"on-click": "konsole -e btop" }, // Custom modules (some of them courtesy of River WM + modifications)"custom/launcher": {"format": "","on-click": "albert show","on-click-right": "rofi -show drun" }, }, { // Basic infos"name": "footer","position": "bottom","height": 32,"margin-right": 10,"margin-bottom": 10, // Disposition"modules-left": ["custom/tuitext","custom/tuipt","custom/stui","custom/gpgtui","custom/dockertui","custom/gitui","custom/bandtui" ],"modules-center": [],"modules-right": ["disk","bluetooth" ], // Custom modules"custom/bandtui": {"format": "","on-click": "konsole -e 'sudo bandwhich'" },"custom/gitui": {"format": "","on-click": "konsole -e lazygit" },"custom/dockertui": {"format": "","on-click": "konsole -e lazydocker" },"custom/gpgtui": {"format": "","on-click": "konsole -e gpg-tui" },"custom/stui": {"format": "","on-click": "konsole -e s-tui" },"custom/tuipt": {"format": "","on-click": "konsole -e tptable" },"custom/tuitext": {"format": "","on-click": "konsole -e lvim" }, // Integrated modules"bluetooth": {"on-click": "plasma-open-settings kcm_bluetooth" },"disk": {"format": "{path} {percentage_used}%","on-click": "pcmanfm-qt" } // Modules below this line are not yet added and should be considered WIP }]
What am I missing? I also tried adding "exclusive" and "layer" options, without any result
I tried googling and editing that file with both "exclusive" and "layer". I would like the bottom bar to be also able to elude windows.
