@LGUG2Z commented on GitHub (Nov 7, 2024):

Regarding the overlapping: it is the user's responsibility to set a sensible number of widgets and/or modify display format options to best fit the size constraints of their physical monitor.

You can also look into setting a smaller max_label_width in your config (the default is 400.0).

Regarding the workspace widget not updating: this can sometimes happen when there is a runtime error which prohibits the bar from receiving the latest updates from the window manager. There is no way for this to be remediated without stopping and starting the bar again to force it to re-subscribe.
