Omarchy

ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirements

A proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

Super+Ctrl+Backspace still bound to square aspect toggle after v3.4.0 upgraderevision 1 · captured 2026-10-04 11:49 UTC via poll

Bug

After upgrading to v3.4.0, Super+Ctrl+Backspace still triggers Toggle single-window square aspect instead of Cycle monitor scaling as listed in the changelog.

Expected (from v3.4.0 changelog)

  • Super+Ctrl+Backspace → cycle monitor scaling (1x → 1.6x → 2x → 3x)
  • Super+Ctrl+Alt+Backspace → toggle single-window square aspect ratio

Actual

  • Super+Ctrl+Backspace → toggle single-window square aspect ratio (old behaviour)
  • Super+Ctrl+Alt+Backspace → unbound

Root cause

~/.local/share/omarchy/default/hypr/bindings/utilities.conf was not updated. It still contains:

bindd = SUPER CTRL, BACKSPACE, Toggle single-window square aspect, exec, omarchy-hyprland-window-single-square-aspect-toggle

The omarchy-hyprland-monitor-scaling-cycle script was added to bin/ correctly, but the default binding was never reassigned. Users who ran omarchy-update get the script but the wrong key.

Fix needed

Update default/hypr/bindings/utilities.conf:

bindd = SUPER CTRL, BACKSPACE, Cycle monitor scaling, exec, omarchy-hyprland-monitor-scaling-cycle
bindd = SUPER CTRL ALT, BACKSPACE, Toggle single-window square aspect, exec, omarchy-hyprland-window-single-square-aspect-toggle

A migration may also be needed so existing users who haven't overridden the binding get it corrected automatically.
