window --focus <east|west> not working on screens with misaligned y

[brorbw]

Expected:

➜ yabai -m window --focus east
could not locate a eastward managed window.

What I got is that it selects the window below on the screen. This behaviour has changed since the previous version and it means that my navigation don't work

alt - h: yabai -m window --focus west  || (yabai -m display --focus west  && yabai -m window --focus east)
alt - j: yabai -m window --focus south || (yabai -m display --focus south && yabai -m window --focus north)
alt - k: yabai -m window --focus north || (yabai -m display --focus north && yabai -m window --focus south)
alt - l: yabai -m window --focus east  || (yabai -m display --focus east  && yabai -m window --focus west)

I did a little more digging and found that it seems to be the placement of displays since this does not work

But this does

Hi there, I have the same issue with two screens side by side in landscape mode.

The expected behaviour can be reached by the placement of displays hack (aligning them on top) as suggested by @brorbw.

I go with this hack but moving the mouse from one display to the other fells tricky with this placement

Is a fix planned for the issue ?

Tell me about it. It's not really usable but I see no alternative

Any update on this?

I have now turned my monitors to landscape mode, not related to yabai. Configuration can be seen below.

The problem still exists. When I have a 2:1 configuration on my leftmost screen, and ONLY with a 2:1 configuration yabai detects a window to the right of my rightmost window. I cannot for the life of me figure out why.

Let me add that all screens are the same resolution.

And I'm running 5.0.2

[brorbw]

Are there any updates?

[brorbw]

I have found a new scenario
For the left most monitor of three all with the same resolution

I was only able to reproduce the issue mentioned in this comment, which is now resolved on master: #1463 (comment)

Not sure if the other issus mentioned were caused by the same underlying issue, or if they are separate.

Probably fixed in v5.0.5. Feel free to reopen if you can reproduce the issue in the new version.

offeex@MacBookPro ~> yabai -m window --focus east
could not locate a eastward managed window.

tho, i'm using managed layout. Any workaround?
