fullscreen mode 1 toggle via hl.dsp.window.fullscreen does not work in 0.55

[kilyabin]

Description

In Hyprland 0.55, calling hl.dsp.window.fullscreen({ mode = 1 }) does not toggle back to tiling when the window is already maximized. The same dispatcher called twice should toggle off, but it does not.

Expected behavior

First press: window goes to maximize (fullscreen=1)
Second press: window returns to tiling (fullscreen=0)

Actual behavior

First press: window goes to maximize (fullscreen=1)
Second press: nothing happens, window stays maximized

Workaround attempt

Calling via hyprctl works as expected:

hyprctl dispatch 'hl.dsp.window.fullscreen({mode=1})'

Both pressing once (maximizes) and pressing again (returns to tiling) work correctly via hyprctl, but not via hl.bind or hl.dispatch in Lua config.

Version

Hyprland 0.55.0 (af923e3)

Are you using the scrolling layout?

[tekstryder]

config already has a bind for the same key and now they're doing two things unknowingly

Aside from named rules processed first, isn't the config parsed serially?

E.g. the last-defined bind for a "duplicate" would be in effect?

@kilyabin make damn sure whatever key you're trying to bind to the maximize toggle isn't already in use to rule this out.

Answer: Yes. Just tested this:

hl.bind(mainMod .. " + F", hl.dsp.window.fullscreen({ mode = "maximized", action = "toggle" }))
hl.bind(mainMod .. " + F", hl.dsp.exec_cmd(menu))

Hyprlauncher is activated, and no config errors on the dupe.

same here but with scrolling, is it a feature or an issue

[tekstryder]

@kito30, un-fullscreen doesn't work with scrolling layout currently, as mentioned upthread #14494 (reply in thread)

See:

I found the issue. For some reason, the bind from end-4 dotfiles was breaking my custom override — even though everything worked fine before. The bind in custom/.lua is supposed to override what's in hyprland/.lua and ignore all binds defined there, but now apparently that's not the case.

Great, at least the root cause was found and the bug itself hasn't resurfaced. Please mark as answered.
