No context menus opening on clicking tray icons
Running riverwm on Arch Linux, I recently installed waybar and setup the configuration. Everything else seems to be running fine, however when I start an applet, such as nm-applet --indicator or blueman-applet, they show up on the systray however do not show any context menus or options when clicked on (neither of the 3 buttons work). All applications are up to date and I have libappindicator-gtk3 installed as well.
tested with discord as well, no reaction to my clicking on discords tray icon either. Tray section in config file is attached below.
"tray": {
"icon-size": 19,
"spacing": 10
},
I also have the same issue. Works well under Sway, but no context menu with River.
I've found a workaround but not a fix for this issue. Adding the config option "gtk-layer-shell": false
in the waybar config file seems to open a context menu in the middle of the screen. Inconvenient but provides a menu. Still waiting for a fix so we can use context menus over the actual tray.
Ohh, thanks for the workaround! At least is it better than no menu at all.
Why is this not fixed yet?
the same thing happens to me in hyprland
Looks like it is working now :) Could be a recent river or waybar update.
This issue is similar to #1850, is the issue on river fixed for you @itsKia2?

Good idea, in hyprland with windows rule can be a perfect solution:
windowrulev2 = move cursor 0 10, class:^(waybar)$, floating:1

Seems to be working now, closing issue. Thanks for all the help
