Atomic topology
Every bar reads one registered-monitor snapshot. Attach and detach invalidate all presentations together.
Omarchy × Hyprland · v2.2.8
Every display.
Its own workspace bank.
Assign a separate workspace bank to each connected monitor. Bank allocation prevents overlapping IDs and replaces stale monitor state after topology changes.

The allocation model
Overrides first.
Output names last.
Explicit bank overrides win, then configured monitor priority, then connected output names in alphabetical order. Duplicate requests are resolved without overlap.

02monitorPriority
Configured monitor order

Alphabetical fallback
RESULTNo overlapping workspace IDs
Topology changes
Attach or remove a display.
Stale teardown protection
Generation-tagged registrations prevent an old widget from removing its replacement during shell reload.
Per-monitor settings
Open the exact monitor panel, edit its global workspace glyphs, and inspect the effective bank through IPC.
Flexible actions
Focus, move, or move silently. Wheel navigation stays inside the assigned monitor bank and can wrap at edges.
Your semantics, visible
Numbers where useful. Glyphs where meaningful.
Hybrid mode gives the active workspace a glyph, occupied workspaces an active-colored number, and empty workspaces a muted number. Optional per-workspace glyphs can turn global IDs into gaming, social, music, or coding landmarks.
- Number, global, glyph, and hybrid modes
- Independent active, occupied, and empty colors
- Per-workspace glyph overrides
- Opacity, width, margin, and padding controls
Inspectable automation
One IPC surface. Explicit outcomes.

qs ipc call multi-monitor-workspaces workspaceIds DP-1
qs ipc call multi-monitor-workspaces activate DP-1 4 focusRace-safe persistence
Field intent merges against the latest shell entry. Removed entries are never resurrected, failed writes stay visible, and request errors cannot mask persistence failures.
Runtime evidence
Status exposes topology serials, registered monitors, allocation snapshots, revision state, pending writes, and separate request/persistence errors.
Install
Give every output a bank.
Requires Omarchy Quattro 4.0 or newer and the built-in Omarchy bar.
