[Hyprland] Mascots are rendered squished near the edges of the screen

[hoodust]

Strangely, the characters shrink horizontally (only) as they get to the very right edge of the screen, and are offset a ways from it (too far left). As they leave the right edge (like once they've climbed to the top) they slowly resize back.

They stay the correct aspect ratio on the left edge of the screen, but the sprites look cut off (again too far left?).

I have an ultrawide monitor (3440x1440) and am on Arch with Hyprland.

Thanks for this project!!

Looks like it's a compositor bug.
Does running shimeji-overlayd --no-viewporter -se gives the same result?

Yes.

This is definitely a compositor bug UNLESS I'm missing something, and there’s a part I missed that states the compositor may shrink the surface if part of it is offscreen. I will open an issue on the Hyprland repository later this week.

This is how it should look normally. The x-anchor for climbing animations is typically somewhere in the center of the sprite, so half of the sprite is offscreen.

Got confirmation that it is indeed a compositor bug. Hyprland violates the Wayland core specification for the wl_subsurface interface, so it's not wl_shimeji's fault.

Thanks @CluelessCatBurger !

I forgot to mention the squishing at the bottom of the screen if you grab the character but you discovered it (same root cause).

I'm curious, in your testing on hyprland, were you able to throw the character? I can grab a character and the grab animation plays, but if the mouse is moved even 1px it releases the character even though LMB is still held.

No, dragging is broken on Hyprland as well (#19)

I assume we need to reopen and pin this issue
