Replace bar from included config

[eulenleber]

my config contains include /etc/sway/config

Now the status_command shall be replaced - but I just get another bar and can not replace the one defined in /etc/sway/config Changing the id to 0 just swaps the bars.

How is it supposed to work?

defining id bar-1 in /etc/ and ~/ just yields two bars with the status_command of ~

I have the same issue.

[diggit]

looking into /etc/sway/config

# Default config for sway
#
# Copy this to ~/.config/sway/config and edit it to your liking.

You are supposed to copy and modify that config file, not include it into your own.

I have the same issue but with another use case. My main config is for i3, I include it in my sway config and override things that need to be different in wayland. This is working flawlessly, and the only exception is that I cannot override the bar! This wasn't an issue until I switched to waybar. 😇
