Describe the bug
I'm trying to assign my windows to a particular space, it doesn't seem to have any effect.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to any widget
  2. Put a "1" into "Show on display" input for the widget to appear only on the main (1st) screen
  3. Click "Confirm changes and refresh simple-bar"

Expected behavior
Widgets should appear on their selected spaces and not appear on other spaces.

Example configuration for network stats

  • OS version: MacOS Tahoe 26.2
  • AeroSpace:
    • aerospace CLI client version: 0.20.1-Beta 66d16c068a49a6a679bde16407673d07ca10c4c0
    • AeroSpace.app server version: 0.20.1-Beta 66d16c068a49a6a679bde16407673d07ca10c4c0

Additional context
My monitor setup: I have 2 monitors

The main one (the one I want the network stats to appear on, not the second display)

The built-in display is used as an extended display.

Here's what lib/scripts/init-aerospace.sh spits out:

{
  "displays": [
    {
      "monitor-appkit-nsscreen-screens-id": 1,
      "monitor-id": 1,
      "monitor-name": "AQW34H3"
    },
    {
      "monitor-appkit-nsscreen-screens-id": 2,
      "monitor-id": 2,
      "monitor-name": "Built-in Retina Display"
    }
  ],
  "SIP": "System Integrity Protection status: enabled.",
  "shadow": true
}
