associated_display property is not applied instantaneously

[FelixKratz]

A change in the associated_display property does not cause a redraw. It has been fixed with: 5d31801, for details see below.

Discussed in #205

Thanks for making such a great and customizable bar.

So, I am trying to show the window title only in the display active, tried using associated_display on the updater script but this seen not work well. Any ideas? 😕

sketchybarrc

sketchybar --add item         window.title left                     \
          --set window.title script="$PLUGIN_DIR/window.title.sh"  \
                              icon.font="SF Pro:Heavy:13.0"         \
                              icon.color=$COLOR_DESACTIVATED_ICON   \
                              label.color=$COLOR_DESACTIVATED_LABEL \
                              update_freq=3                         \
          --subscribe        window.title front_app_switched

window.title.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash

source "$(pwd)/colors.sh"

QUERY=$(yabai -m query --windows --window)
TITLE=$(echo "$QUERY" | jq -r '.title')
DISPLAY=$(echo "$QUERY" | jq -r '.display')

if [ "${INFO}" == "" ]; then
  INFO=$(echo "$QUERY" | jq -r '.app')
fi

sketchybar -m --set ${NAME} icon="${INFO}" label="${TITLE}" associated_display=${DISPLAY}

I have tracked down a bug in the updating logic that prevented the associated_display property to apply correctly. Also I have added the active display id to the $INFO variable for the display_change event: 5d31801

What you are asking for is now possible on current master by doing this:
sketchybarrc

sketchybar --add       system.label       left                                 \
           --set       system.label       label=Window                         \
                                          script="$PLUGIN_DIR/window_title.sh" \
           --subscribe system.label       front_app_switched display_change

window_title.sh

#!/usr/bin/env sh

case "$SENDER" in
  "front_app_switched") sketchybar --set $NAME label="$INFO"
  ;;
  "display_change") sketchybar --set $NAME associated_display=$INFO
  ;;
