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.

Top-bar widgets intermittently become unclickable due to cross-PanelWindow hit-testing in moduleClickTargetAt()revision 1 · captured 2026-09-28 21:23 UTC via poll

What's wrong?

Top-bar widgets intermittently become unclickable

Description

Some Omarchy top-bar widgets intermittently stop responding to mouse clicks while remaining visually normal.

Affected widgets have included:
- Dropbox
- Tailscale
- System Tray
- Agents
- Audio / Speaker

The widgets remain visible in the correct position, but their effective click area can become displaced. In the attached screen recording, clicks may only work when the pointer is moved very close to the top edge.

Restarting the Omarchy shell or changing/repositioning the bar restores normal clicking.

Investigation

Initially, I suspected pointer delivery, overlay layers, duplicate IpcHandlers, bar geometry, or a Hyprland/Quickshell issue.

A read-only source audit instead identified a likely cross-PanelWindow hit-testing issue in:

/usr/share/omarchy/shell/plugins/bar/Bar.qml

Relevant code:

  • Bar.qml:101 — shared clickTargets array
  • Bar.qml:966-976 — separate BarPanel / PanelWindow instances for Quickshell.screens
  • Bar.qml:1769 — widgets receive the same bar: root
  • WidgetButton.qml:44-55 — widgets register into the shared clickTargets
  • Bar.qml:762-782 — moduleClickTargetAt() iterates the shared targets and calls:
slot.mapToItem(target, localX, localY)

### Investigation

Initially, I suspected pointer delivery, overlay layers, duplicate `IpcHandler`s, bar geometry, or a Hyprland/Quickshell issue.

A read-only source audit instead identified a likely cross-`PanelWindow` hit-testing issue in:

`/usr/share/omarchy/shell/plugins/bar/Bar.qml`

Relevant code:

- `Bar.qml:101` — shared `clickTargets` array
- `Bar.qml:966-976` — separate `BarPanel` / `PanelWindow` instances for `Quickshell.screens`
- `Bar.qml:1769` — widgets receive the same `bar: root`
- `WidgetButton.qml:44-55` — widgets register into the shared `clickTargets`
- `Bar.qml:762-782` — `moduleClickTargetAt()` iterates the shared targets and calls:

```qml
slot.mapToItem(target, localX, localY)

Validation

Not checked yet. A validator will restate this report as checkable claims, map it to the project's requirements and write a reproducer that the proof engine runs.
