We have launched Archlabs a few months ago and we are very happy with your slimlock and the theming possibilities. I am probably one of the fewer people that have an issue due to the fact that I use dual monitors to work efficiently. It is not a dealbreaker but it would be awesome if there was possibility to tell slimlock to display on the first screen the locking and the second and all others would go black. That would just be the finishing touch it needs. The ArchLabs community would be in your debt. And I.
I have to report that I have now exactly what I wanted. The lock on screen left and the right screen is black. Any information I can provide you to solve this one, just let me know. I hope to figure out why it went over two screens earlier on and now it is working correct. The only thing I can think of is that in order for me to make this tutorial about slimlock link youtube tutorial I went into the xfce panel and mirrored my displays. It may have influenced the program. Still on ArchLabs which is an openbox with parts of xfce.

I have a question regarding that. I have the same problem as you, but my secon monitor is my laptop with a closed lid that isnt used and also turned off via xrandr in my bspwmrc. How can i disable it on startup so that slimlock doenst een recognize it?
