Top bar disappears when moving between monitors
There appears to be an extension conflict between PaperWM develop branch (404d50c41675f0169018ce8ecaa13cb589825389) and Dash to panel v37.
I have "Make top bar follow montior focus" off in PaperWM.
In dash to panel, I have "display the main panel" on set to default, and "Display panels on all monitors" set to off. I have played around with the options a bit to see if I can get a combination which works, but to no effect.
You can see when I move my cursor from the primary to the secondary monitor on the left, the top bar disappears.

They are both great extensions, FWIW I have disabled dash to dock for now :)

Right, «top bar follows focus monitor» still moves the top bar, but always to the primary monitor: https://github.com/paperwm/PaperWM/blob/b33f2d859dc0eaced1d338e336928fa78943e32d/topbar.js#L624-L633
I'd guess this issue would be fixed by leaving the top bar alone in the above code, and only move it to the primary monitor when topbar-follow-focus is turned off:

Thanks for the pointer, this fixes it for me, but I don't completely understand what the topbar_follow_focus setting should do.
Fixed by #309.
