# Bar freeze: anchored quickshell PanelWindows never repaint on Hyprland 0.56.2

## Impact on Omarchy
The top bar renders exactly one frame at mount and then never updates. Symptoms
on a stock install:

- The bar **clock never ticks** (center section also stays hidden: it is
  revealed on hover, which requires a repaint).
- Asynchronous content never appears — custom widgets whose text/logo resolve
  a frame "late" (e.g. process-stdout widgets, `StdioCollector` results) show
  nothing even though their logic runs fine.
- Hover highlights do not appear; hide/show toggles produce exactly one repaint
  per geometry change.

This bit me specifically with a custom module whose logo/text came back from an
async fetch: the module mounts and runs, but the bar only ever composites its
first frame, so the widget is invisible.

## Root cause (upstream Quickshell)
Minimal repro (identical files except the `anchors` block) on this machine:

```qml
// anchored  — FROZEN
PanelWindow {
  width: 500; height: 40
  WlrLayershell.namespace: "repro-anchored"
  WlrLayershell.layer: WlrLayer.Top
  anchors { top: true; left: true; right: true }
  Timer { interval: 1000; running: true; repeat: true; triggeredOnStart: true
          onTriggered: clock.text = Qt.formatTime(new Date(), "hh:mm:ss") }
  Text { id: clock; ... color: "white" }
}
```
```qml
// floating — LIVE
// (same file with the anchors block removed)
```

Measured per-surface with `compare -metric AE` over the window's exact
layer-shell rect, grabbed 4 s apart, run in isolation:

| window | region AE | result |
|---|---|---|
| anchored | ~0 | frozen |
| floating | 1215 | live |

Confirmed on both `WlrLayer.Top` and `WlrLayer.Overlay`, with and without
transparency/`exclusionMode`, and with explicit `x`/`y`.

The omarchy bar hits this because `Bar.qml`'s `BarPanel` is anchored —
the documented standard quickshell bar pattern.

## Environment
- Omarchy on Arch, Hyprland 0.56.2 (commit `efb50993780079460b0cbed1363e2166a2de1d9f`)
- Quickshell 0.3.1 (Arch package), native Wayland
- Intel Iris Plus 640, single output eDP-1 2560x1600@60 scale 2

## Upstream reference
Filed at https://github.com/quickshell-mirror/quickshell/issues/1130

Would help all omarchy users if the distro can pin/backport a fixed quickshell,
or document a workaround until upstream resolves it.
