sway 1.10: no controls are shown after sway restart

[532910]

steps to reproduce:

1. reload sway (Ctrl-Alt-End in my case: bindsym --to-code $mod+Ctrl+End reload)
2. run waylogout

[loserMcloser]

Can't reproduce here. What is the output if you do the following from a terminal?

$ swaymsg reload
$ waylogout --debug

[532910]

wlr-randr showed eDP-1 was enabled after reload as I missed --reload for bindswitch:

bindswitch --locked {
	lid:on  output $laptop_display disable
	lid:off output $laptop_display enable
}

with

bindswitch --locked --reload {
	lid:on  output $laptop_display disable
	lid:off output $laptop_display enable
}

all works fine, so this means #20 is not fixed, as when two output are enabled I see controls only on the one of them

[loserMcloser]

I'm not clear on what steps I need to take to reproduce.

Here's what I tried:

1. Connected my laptop's HDMI output to my TV.
2. Ran waylogout. Result: command indicators visible on both screens.
3. Ran swaymsg output eDP-1 disable (where eDP-1 is my laptop's screen), so that only TV was displaying output. Then ran waylogout again. Result: command indicators were visible on the TV.
4. Ran swaymsg output eDP-1 enable to turn laptop screen back on, then ran waylogout again. Result: command indicators were visible on both screens again.

Aside: I'm not clear on why you need (or want) --reload on those bindswitch lines in your config. My reading of man 5 sway is that including --reload is going to cause both commands output $laptop_display disable and output $laptop_display enable to run every time sway is reloaded. It doesn't seem necessary or desirable to cause your laptop display to be toggled off then on in quick succession when you reload sway.

[532910]

I believe the man is wrong, --reload means just evaluate, not execute the rule:

My laptop lid is always closed I don't see what's going there.

When I start sway lid:on output $laptop_display disable disables eDP-1, only DP-1 is enabled, all works fine.
When I do restart, sway enables eDP-1, that's why I need --reload to disable it back.

even if I open laptop lid and see both monitors, waylogout shows controls only on the one screen

% waylogout --version         
waylogout version 0fee386 (" __DATE__ ", branch 'mainline')

[loserMcloser]

I believe the man is wrong

No sorry, my bad, I misunderstood the man page (though it could be worded better). Your explanation made more sense --- the command is executed on reload but only if the switch state matches.

Still can't reproduce your issue here. I am testing with the same version of waylogout (0fee386).

Here's what I tried this morning:

1. Set HandleLidSwitch and HandleLidSwitchExternalPower to ignore in /etc/systemd/logind.conf then reloaded systemd-logind.service.
2. Added your bindswitch lines to my sway config. Reloaded sway.
3. Connected TV to HDMI output on my laptop.

But from here I could not find any permutation of the operations of of opening/closing laptop lid, reloading sway, and running waylogout that caused unexpected behaviour (though sometimes there was a slight delay between when waylogout showed up on my laptop screen and when it showed up on my TV, when both outputs were enabled).

(I verified using swaymsg -t get_outputs that the laptop display was in fact disabled when the lid was closed, and re-confirmed after each reload of sway.)

Ignoring the bindswitch configuration for the moment, is there some specific order/combination of the following commands run from a terminal that causes the issue for you?

> swaymsg output eDP-1 enable/disable
> swaymsg reload
> waylogout

[532910]

Sorry for confusing you with reload, lid and bindings, forgot about all of this, it doesn't work just from the start.

~/.config/sway/config:

bindsym --to-code Mod1+Escape      exec tilix
bindsym --to-code Mod1+Ctrl+Delete exec waylogout
