anybody having issues with using the grid on a non-primary monitor

[jf]

As an example, on my main monitor, doing "w s" places a window into the middle column of the screen, but on my secondary, it always places it where "q a" is instead.

I don't, but I noticed that I need my `hs.grid.HINTS to have one more row than my grid setting.

;; Make the grid hints look like my keyboard layout
(set hs.grid.HINTS
     [[ "f1" "f2" "f3" "f4" "f5" "f6" "f7" "f8" "f9" "f10" ] ; This line doesn't show
      [ "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "0" ]
      [ "Q" "W" "F" "P" "V" "J" "L" "U" "Y" ";" ]
      [ "A" "R" "S" "T" "G" "M" "N" "E" "I" "O" ]
      [ "Z" "X" "C" "D" "B" "K" "H" "," "." "/" ]])

(local config
       {:title "Main Menu"
        ;...
        :grid {:size "9x4"}
        :hyper {:key :F18}})

hs.inspect(hs.grid.HINTS) shows this, so I think i'm good?

> hs.inspect(hs.grid.HINTS)
{ { "f1", "f2", "f3", "f4", "f5", "f6", "f7", "f8", "f9", "f10" }, { "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "0" }, { "Q", "W", "E", "R", "T", "Y", "U", "I", "O", "P" }, { "A", "S", "D", "F", "G", "H", "J", "K", "L", ";" }, { "Z", "X", "C", "V", "B", "N", "M", ",", ".", "/" } }

what is your grid size in your spacehammer config?
I think it should be 10x4 in your case.

[jf]

I started out with 3x2 as per spacehammer's default in window.fnl.

Do the hints have to match up with the grid size? If that's the case that just seems like an awful way to have to configure things. I was thinking that hs.grid would simply take as many hints from the table as necessary. So in the case of 3x2, it'll just do Q, W, E, then A, S, D (which it does). And then I when I update the grid to 3x3, I get an additional row showing Z, X, C. Is this not how the hints are supposed to work?

[Grazfather]

I'm not sure, I just remember having to get them inline for normal behaviour

[jf]

ok. I just tried it to be sure, and it does not fix things for me. Maybe something else to dig into / to add to my list of things to dig into. Thank you regardless!
