Important notice to Monado/WiVRn users

If you used a fork or patched Monado / WiVRn for playspace mover, switch back to the default upstream repository!

Make sure you Envision is up to date. WiVRn users; wipe and re-create your WiVRn profile in Envision if seeing errors related to libmonado.

Face-tracked WiVRn will keep working with this version of Wlx.

WlxOverlay-S v0.4.3

Important notice to Monado/WiVRn users

If you used a fork or patched Monado / WiVRn for playspace mover, switch back to the default upstream repository!

Make sure you Envision is up to date and you're using the CodeBerg one, not the GitLab one!

Face-tracked WiVRn will keep working with this version of Wlx.

What's new:

• New theme
• OpenXR: playspace mover finalized to spec (will work with upstream Monado/WiVRn from now)
• OpenXR: add Monado battery support
• OpenXR: fix screen color banding issue
• OpenXR: add triple_click bindings

WlxOverlay-S v0.4.2

✨ Read if you're upgrading from < 0.4.x! ✨

• If you switched to pw-fallback due to No suitable device found error, chances are you can go back to (much faster) DMA-buf capture: rm ~/.config/wlxoverlay/conf.d/pw_fallback.yaml
• If you have a keyboard.yaml, you might want to put that aside and see the new defaults.
• Things are no longer relative to your head, but relative to the yellow "center" cross. You can re-center the cross using the Show/Hide binding (default: double-tap B or Y on left controller). You can also save your layout on the settings panel.

What's new:

• fix auto-start not working with SteamVR 2.x
• space drag multiplier (adjust as needed on settings panel)
• fix keyboard layout not loading correctly on some desktops (@DASPRiD)
• update dependencies (@HavenOfTheRaven)
• removed no-dmabuf feature in favor of a runtime check
