Monitors change position when DP-0 is turned off

Open 3ri4nG0ld opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

I currently have 3 monitors connected with the following settings

bspc config remove_disabled_monitors false
bspc config remove_unplugged_monitors false

bspc wm -O DP-0 HDMI-0 DP-3

bspc monitor DP-0 -d 1 2 3 4 5  
bspc monitor HDMI-0 -d 6 7 8 9 10
bspc monitor DP-3 -d 11

If I run the command bspc query --monitors --names the output is as expected:

DP-0
HDMI-0
DP-3

But if I turn off the DP-0 monitor the output of the command changes to:

DP-3
DP-0
HDMI-0

I expected the lines bspc config remove_disabled_monitors false and bspc config remove_unplugged_monitors false will fix my problem, but it doesn't.

this issue is similar to #1336. maybe this fix could be as simple as something like this, but i'm not sure about side effects.

it won't help with monitor order when running wm --restart, which will still reorder based on geometry.
