Summary

Problem

komorebi.bar.json defines some offset and size configuration that don't apply on komorebic start --whkd --bar.

Running the following command also doesnt seem to fix the problem
Stop-Process -name komorebi-bar; Start-Process komorebi-bar -windowstyle hidden

Work Around:

Open the file in any editor and save it again

I am having this bug too.

Another workaround is just touch C:\Users\name\.config\komorebi\komorebi.bar.json.

I do not know if it's related, but when you execute the stop command you do not stop the bar and when you execute the start command, you start a new bar, end up having 2 bars running at the same time.

komorebic stop --bar
you need to add a bar argument to stop the bar.
