Summary

I have seen a recurring problem where a window on my laptop spills across to my monitor also when komorebi is turned on.

This does not happen with all applications but it is consistent in those that have this issue. I have observed this so far with Libre Calc and Everything. This has happened on my old computer too and now is also happening on the new computer.

Here is a screenshot with everything spilling on to the second monitor.

The screeenshot is on my Monitor but the window is actually on my laptop screen. Same thing happens with Libre Calc.
Not sure if it is relevant, but this happens only with windows on my laptop screen but have never seen this so far with a window on my Monitor.

Hotkey Configuration

The WHK hotkeys don't work for me , which is probably another issue. Currently in the process of setting up Autohotkey.

Output of komorebic check

KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME detected: C:\Users\abc.config\komorebi

Looking for configuration files in C:\Users\abc.config\komorebi

Found komorebi.json; this file can be passed to the start command with the --config flag

Found C:\Users\abc.config\whkd\whkdrc; key bindings will be loaded from here when whkd is started, and you can start it automatically using the --whkd flag
