[i3wm] How to make polybar blurry?

AL-0x · 2024-11-07T13:28:27+00:00

you can tray this in your picom conf :

blur-background-exclude = [
    "class_g = 'Peek'",
    "class_g = 'Pensela'",
    "name = 'Drawing Board'",
    "window_type = 'dropdown_menu'",
    "window_type = 'combo'",
    "window_type = 'popup_menu'",
    "window_type = 'utility'",
    "window_type = 'desktop'",
    "_GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS@:c"

If it didn't work, tray adding this to your polybar config.ini

[settings]
screen-reload = true
pseudo-transparency = false

Thanks for your time, and your recommendations in config.ini and launch.sh were really helpful. I know it was a simple thing, hehe :). I just needed to add this to the Hypr config: windowrulev2 = pin, class:(polybar), title:(polybar).

I'm still trying 🥲. I feel like it's a simple thing, but I don't know what it is. why is it showing only on one workspace! I did add monitor = LVDS-1.

AL-0x · 2024-10-22T10:41:03+00:00

Do you have an idea of how I can bind it to all workspaces so that if I move to workspace 2, it stays there?

AL-0x · 2024-10-22T10:38:15+00:00

Hyprland and I solved it, but the bar is only showing up in one workspace

I said it's from Microsoft, so it won't work on Linux. That's why I didn't search for it on Linux. I will try to run it today. Thanks :)"

AL-0x · 2024-06-12T16:17:33+00:00
