Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Well, it's a feature with a lot of other bars. If not all your screen are the same resolution, aspect ratio or landscape, a bar made to work well on an ultrawide landscape will overflow and not fit on a portrait. So, having a subset is nice.

Describe the solution you'd like
There is two ways.
1: Have a "monitor": "DP-1" type option for bars. Allow multiple concurant bars for one process. 1 config file with multiple bars in it. And the ability to toggle specific bar
2: Still need the option to have "DP-1", but allow for multiple ironbar process, with config file specification in -c argument.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Not really fixable. Porting to a different bar I guess.

Additional context

===
Maybe this is already doable, but if so, I couldn't find how in the wiki
