Fix HUD menus and cursor telemetry on Linux Wayland (Hyprland/Omarchy) - #863
Fix HUD menus and cursor telemetry on Linux Wayland (Hyprland/Omarchy)#863Nuu-maan wants to merge 3 commits into
Conversation
Linux has no hover-driven mouse passthrough, so the HUD lives in a compact 160px window and its popover menus were clipped. The earlier attempt to grow the window on hover (shipped in 1.3.3) made the bar jump away from the pointer on Wayland, because Hyprland re-centres a floating window that resizes itself and the bar was anchored to the window bottom. Grow the window only while a popover is open, and on Wayland anchor the bar to the window centre so it stays put through the resize.
uiohook only sees XWayland clients, so under a Wayland session it reports no pointer motion or clicks and auto-zoom and click effects have nothing to work with. Poll Hyprland's socket for the pointer position and read mouse buttons from /dev/input devices that advertise BTN_LEFT.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change adds Wayland cursor and mouse-button capture, platform-specific HUD resize anchoring, menu-state IPC synchronization, corresponding renderer state, tests, and Arch/Omarchy setup documentation. ChangesWayland HUD support
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This PR improves Linux Wayland HUD behavior and cursor telemetry, but merge readiness is moderate because multi-display scaling can produce incorrect cursor coordinates, the documented input-group access grants broader device access than needed, and the build instructions are inconsistent for packaged builds; these issues need correction or explicit owner acceptance.

Hyprland IPC j/cursorpos coordinates monitor scale per-output documentation
💡 Result:
In Hyprland, the cursorpos command (accessed via hyprctl cursorpos or hyprctl j/cursorpos) returns the current cursor position in global layout coordinates [1][2][3]. These coordinates represent the cursor's location across the entire desktop space, effectively treating all monitor outputs as a single, combined coordinate system [4]. Key points regarding coordinate scaling and per-output monitoring: 1. Global Coordinates: The cursorpos command does not provide per-monitor coordinates by default; it provides the global absolute position [1][2]. 2. Scaling and Transforms: Monitor positioning in Hyprland is calculated based on scaled and transformed resolutions [5]. Because the global coordinate system accounts for these configurations, the raw cursorpos values are influenced by the total layout geometry but are not automatically scaled relative to a specific monitor's internal coordinate system [5]. 3. Per-Output Calculation: To determine the cursor's position relative to a specific monitor, you must perform the calculation manually by comparing the global cursor position against the geometry (x, y, width, height) of the target monitor [4]. You can retrieve monitor geometry and scale factors using the hyprctl monitors or hyprctl j/monitors command [6][3]. 4. Internal Logic: Internally, Hyprland calculates cursor positions for specific monitors using the global pointer position and the monitor's specific transformation, scale, and offset [7]. For example, the function CPointerManager::getCursorPosForMonitor subtracts the monitor's position from the global pointer position and adjusts based on the monitor's scale and transform settings [7]. If you require this data programmatically, use hyprctl j/cursorpos to get the JSON output and hyprctl j/monitors to parse the layout and scaling information [8][6], then compute the relative offset in your client-side application [4].

Electron 43 screen Display bounds scaleFactor screen coordinates Linux documentation
💡 Result:
In Electron 43, the screen and display information, including bounds and scale factor, are managed through the screen module API [1][2]. Key concepts regarding screen coordinates and scaling include: 1. Coordinate System: Electron uses two types of coordinates [1]. - Device-independent pixel (DIP) points: Virtualized screen points that are scaled based on the display's DPI [1]. The bounds and workArea properties of a Display object are provided in DIPs [3][4]. - Physical screen points: Raw hardware pixels on the display [1]. 2. Scaling: The scaleFactor property of a Display object represents the output device's pixel scale factor [3]. This value is essential for translating between DIPs and physical pixels [1]. 3. Conversion Utilities: Electron provides utility methods to convert between these coordinate systems [1]. On Linux (and Windows), you can use: - screen.dipToScreenPoint(point): Converts a DIP point to a physical point [1]. - screen.screenToDipPoint(point): Converts a physical point to a DIP point [1]. - Similar methods exist for rectangles, such as screen.dipToScreenRect and screen.screenToDipRect [1]. 4. Linux-Specific Considerations: While these APIs are available, note that screen.screenToDipPoint and screen.dipToScreenPoint are not currently supported on Wayland and will return the input point without modifications [1]. Developers should ensure they are targeting the correct display when querying these properties, often by using screen.getDisplayNearestPoint(point) or screen.getDisplayMatching(rect) rather than relying solely on screen.getPrimaryDisplay [1][5]. As of Electron 43, there are no specific documented changes to the core logic of the screen module's coordinate system, though the release included various fixes for window positioning and scaling behavior [6][7].

Map Hyprland points in Electron’s per-display coordinate space.
When the cursor is on an output whose scale differs from the primary display, the primary-scale multiplication in wayland.ts does not produce a valid physical coordinate for that output. getNormalizedCursorPoint() reverses that primary-scale conversion, then compares the result with Electron’s DIP display bounds. Map each point using its containing output’s geometry and scale.

Limit the CMake fallback claim to development installs.
WHISPER_RUNTIME_ALLOW_MISSING=1 npm install only scopes the variable to the install command. The build script still requires CMake or a staged runtime for direct npm run build and target build commands unless the variable is set again. This conflicts with the packaged-build steps below. State that the fallback supports development only, or document the required variable and missing auto-caption behavior for packaged builds.

Hyprland 0.54 window rules match:class match:float no_blur no_shadow no_dim border_size legacy class: floating:1 noblur bordersize
💡 Result:
In Hyprland 0.54, the window rule syntax underwent significant changes [1][2]. The old windowrulev2 and positional rule syntax have been superseded by a unified windowrule format [1][3]. To apply rules, you must now define props (for matching) and effects (for the behavior) [1][3]. All props must match for a rule to be applied [1]. Rule Syntax Structure The standard syntax requires separating the match criteria and the effects with commas [1][2]. Unlike older versions where effects often preceded match criteria, the modern syntax uses match: prefixes for properties and explicit values for effects (e.g., on, yes, or numeric values) [1][2]. Example: windowrule = match:class ^(my-app)$, float on, noblur on, noshadow on, nodim on, bordersize 0 Supported Fields Props (Match Criteria) You use the match: prefix to define criteria [4][1]: match:class [RegEx]: Matches the window's class. match:float [bool]: Matches floating windows (use 1 for true, 0 for false) [4][1]. match:title, match:initial_class, match:initial_title, match:xwayland, match:workspace, etc. [1] Effects Common effects include: float [on/off] [1][2] noblur [on/off] [5] noshadow [on/off] nodim [on/off] bordersize [int] [5] Important Configuration Notes 1. Prop-Effect Order: Rules are generally defined as windowrule = [effect], [match:prop], though the order of individual effects and match props within a rule can be flexible as long as the syntax is consistent [1][2]. 2. Values: Boolean effects or properties (like float or noblur) now typically require an explicit state such as on or 1 [1][2]. 3. Multiple Props: You can combine multiple match criteria, but each type (e.g., match:class) can only be specified once per rule [1]. 4. Legacy Syntax: If you see references to class: or floating:1 without the match: prefix, these are likely from older versions (pre-0.53) and are no longer valid in 0.54 [2]. You must update them to match:class and match:float 1 (or match:float on) [1][2]. For complex configurations, Hyprland 0.54 also supports a structured block format: windowrule { name = my-custom-rule match:class = ^(my-app)$ float = on noblur = on bordersize = 0 } [1][3]

Load hudOverlayResizeAnchor before signaling HUD readiness.
hudOverlayRendererReady can show the hidden HUD before the asynchronous support request sets the anchor. On Wayland, the initial "bottom" state can render with paddingBottom: "1.25rem" before changing to "calc(50vh - 60px)". Resolve the anchor before signaling readiness, or keep the HUD hidden until the response is applied.

Heads up for anyone testing this on AMD GPUs (tested on Lucienne/RADV, Hyprland 0.56.2, XDPH 1.4.1): the blocking I've opened #904 with the same evdev collection rewritten using O_NONBLOCK reads + 20 ms polling (threads never park, ~0 CPU cost), plus a guard so collection only runs on Hyprland/Wayland sessions (avoiding double-counted clicks on X11 where the uiohook path works). Might be worth adopting here too. |

Problem
On Omarchy (Arch + Hyprland, Wayland) the recording HUD is unusable:
setHudOverlayFallbackExpandedfrom e2802bf). Wayland ignores the repositioned bounds, Hyprland re-centres a floating window that resizes itself, and the bar (anchored to the window bottom) jumps ~190px away from the pointer, collapses, and oscillates. With the HUD at its default bottom-of-screen position the bar ends up off-screen entirely. The revert in d2796fb stopped the resize, but that leaves the popover menus clipped inside the 160px window.alwaysOnTopis ignored on Wayland.Changes
hud-overlay-set-menu-openIPC), never on hover. On Wayland the bar is anchored to the window centre (paddingBottom: calc(50vh - 60px)) so the compositor's centre-anchored resize leaves it in place; X11 keeps the bottom-anchored layout. The anchor is reported through the existingget-hud-overlay-mouse-passthrough-supportedhandler.j/cursorpos) for the pointer position and read mouse buttons from/dev/inputdevices that advertiseBTN_LEFT(needs theinputgroup, which Omarchy grants by default). Other compositors keep the existing fallback.WHISPER_RUNTIME_ALLOW_MISSING=1, and Hyprland window rules (pin,noblur,noshadow,nodim,opacity 1 1,bordersize 0) for therecordly/Recordlyclass.Fixes #600 and #638.
