Certain windows (notably VS Codium, GIMP, Obsidian, Balena Etcher, and Orca Slicer) are not able to be clicked on my second monitor. The windows are not displaying any hover states or anything either. It doesn't seem to be exclusively electron apps as I don't believe GIMP is electron. I'm not super sure on how to debug this or if it's something to do with my setup

Here's my current niri config. The affected monitor is the ViewSonic Corporation VX2452 Series TVT163705806 output defined in the config. Waybar and other applications like my web browser and terminal work fine, and the windows are still able to be controlled (for example changing their width) using the usual niri keyboard shortcuts

I've been daily driving niri for the past few weeks and it's been a great addition to my workflow, I appreciate all the continued work and support done on this project!

System Information

  • niri version: niri 25.02 (unknown commit)
  • Distro: OpenSUSE Tumbleweed 20250223
  • GPU: AMD Radeon Graphics
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7530U

Hey, it's this: Supreeeme/xwayland-satellite#15

Put monitors at positive coords, or run apps in Wayland native mode (vs codium, obsidian with the ozone flag, for GIMP install GIMP 3 RC).
