it shares its daemonic state with kanshi, but unlike kanshi it creates output layouts dynamicly instead of relying on the user to pre-configure them

leon-p Thx. I'll give it a try. Btw. I like kanshi's design/interface but I'm suffering from the same problem as in here https://todo.sr.ht/~emersion/kanshi/58 .

that could also be a compositor/wlroots bug, in which case a different output configuration thing won't really help, but it won't hurt to try
<gabm[m]>
i experienced the same today.. after redocking the outputs were not reconfigured... i think the Problem is in River but it's too early to tell...
<gabm[m]>
until yesterday i used sway and never had any problems with this. Now i switched to River but kept everything else the same (wlroots, kanshi, config) and the problem appeared.... however since I'm using wlroots-git it could have also been introduced these days (?)

hey all, I noticed that the waybar integration with river tags mentions this concept of urgency for tags (see `man waybar-river-tags`). It appears to have something to do with wayland's XDG_ACTIVATION feature, but I don't know of a real world use case for this. Does anyone have an example of how this is used?
<natris1979[m]>
actually now that I mention, this is probably better asked in the IRC channel for wayland

nani8ot[m]: for example in foot, when I have a highlight in IRC or a mail in aerc it does set the tags urgent if it is not focused
<novakane>
oops natris1979[m] sorry nani8ot[m]

hmm I wonder if there is a way to trigger that from the raw shell. I could see something like `./long_running_thing.sh; make_this_tag_urgent` being super useful
<novakane>
natris1979[m]: if you use foot you can try it with `sleep 2 && echo -e '\a'` for example, unfocused the windows and you'll see
<natris1979[m]>
@novakane huh, doesn't seem to work. I thought maybe it was my terminal emulator (alacritty) didn't support it, but I installed foot and it doesn't work from there either
<novakane>
hmm weird, you unfocused the window before the end of the sleep command?
<natris1979[m]>
yup, switched to totally different tag
<novakane>
natris1979[m]: ah wait you need [bell] urgent=yes in foot.ini
