Yes, I spent a while reading the documentation on how to pin workspaces to certain monitors only for hyprland to tell me that it is deprecated.
Also an issue I noticed is that you can’t move floating windows between displays with the move left/right commands, move left/right moves the floating window to the left or right of the display and no more, meaning that the window gets stuck at the border of the display and doesn’t move more.
Also I couldn’t figure out how to make hyperland run several commands in a row with one keybind, or how to filter windows with expressions, something that I do a lot on my i3config .
And my biggest issue, and this one seems to be with wayland in general is that it seems that it is impossible to set my displays to extended more, that is turn the 3 displays that I have into a single display which I use with some games.
i3 isn’t perfect either, I actually had to fork it and apply a patch that fixes and issue that I have that hasn’t been merged yet either.
I will list all my issues with sway anyway, hopefully somebody out there notices it and fixes them:
https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/8000
https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/8001
https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/8002
https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/8191
And all these bugs are the result of less than 2 days in total of use of sway, there is likely more that I haven’t run into.
I also had an issue that affected xfce4 apps, but that issue ended up being a dbus-broker issue that only happens on wayland for some reason lol
I have workspaces pinned to monitors in Hyprland and have none of the problems you mentioned. I use odd numbers for left screen and even numbers for right.
Edit: just took a look and can’t find mention of the depreciation; where did you read that?
hyperland itself told me that, I have a terrible picture (I didn’t setup screenshots lol) of it: https://imgur.com/a/fWwmt1e
This was right before yuzu closed down btw.
and have none of the problems you mentioned.
You can move floating windows between displays with the move left/right commands? (not the move to workspace commands).
edit: Found a related issue https://github.com/hyprwm/hyprland-wiki/issues/242
That’s just the way you write the rules being deprecated, not the functionality.
There is move left/right within a workspace, move to specific workspace and then move to next/previous workspace (from memory using e+1 as the workspace name in the command but might be misremembering). Admittedly this isn’t exactly the same as what you want; I replied from my mobile and checked when I went back to my desk. I usually use meta/shift/[num] to send to a specific workspace though as I make heavy use of them.
