So far I have found one main issue:

  • Setting hl.gesture.workspace_swipe_touch = true will not work. It relies on the touch starting at the edge of the display.

I am okay with a quick solution to just have a global shortcut to reveal the bar. There could be cases where you'd not want to show an additional menu along with the bar. I also have a feeling there is no real way of resolving this, afaik, hyprland does not have a way to exceed the 1 pixel touchcheck.

For proper support, we could introduce touch support for the bar. For example support pulling the notification center. If this is the trajectory, there needs to be a way for workspaces to be swiped horizontally and the notification center swipe to coexist. If this is not possible, one or the other could be set as an option.
