Hi! By the way im love the bar so much that im move from waybar.
I noticed that the bar seems to double its intended size out of nowhere and i don't know why.
Here is the screenshot:

On the left there is my HD screen and on the right my QHD screen.
All my other screen seem to scale correctly.
When i log in even the HD screen is fine but then it suddenly doubles in size.

Here is my system information:

OS: Arch Linux x86_64
Kernel: 6.14.5-6.14.5
DE: wlroots
Terminal: alacritty
CPU: Intel Ultra 7 155U (14) @ 4.800GH
GPU: Intel Graphics

Here is my config.yaml:

anchor_to_edges: true
position: bottom
icon_theme: kora
height: 30
start:

  - type: "network_manager"
    icon_size: 24

  - type: "bluetooth"
    icon_size: 35

  - type: "volume"
    format: '<span size="xx-large">{icon}</span>'


center:

  - type: "launcher"
    show_icons: true
    icon_size: 35

  - type: "tray"
    direction: 'h'
    icon_size: 40




end:
  - type: "clock"



  - type: "battery"
    format: "{percentage}"
    thresholds:
      full: 100
      mid: 50
      low: 20

Thank you!
