Bspwm: Monitors are switched?

[dg10a]

My bspwmrc is configured like this:

bspc monitor LVDS1 -d I II III IV V
bspc monitor HDMI1 -d VI VII VIII IX X

And my _sxhkdrc_ like this:

super + {_,shift + }{1-9,0}
    bspc {desktop -f,node -d} '^{1-9,10}'

When I press super + 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5, it goes to the monitor HDMI1, not LVDS1. And when I press super + 6, 7, 8, 9, or 0 it goes to LVDS1. This was working correctly until recently.

which one is your primary monitor, using xrandr output?

[dg10a]

LVDS1, but bspc query --monitors outputs

0x600002

[ttzhou]

try bspc monitor LVDS1 --reset-desktops I II III IV V and similarly for HDM1

addendum: if that doesn't work, try just

bspc monitor LVDS1 --reset-desktops ... bspc monitor HDMI1 -d ...

i.e. drop the reset-desktops flag for HDMI1

Tried both in current session and after adding it to the bspwmrc, same problem.

[faiden]

bspc desktop -f '^1'
bspc desktop -f 'V'

these two are now the same but number "1" should be "I" as this is how I setup my bspwmrc

bspc monitor Monitor1 -d I II III IV
bspc monitor Monitor2 -d V VI VII VII

however bspc query -M gives output

Monitor1

I had to solve it with:

focus or send to the given desktop

super + {_,shift + }{1-9,0}
            bspc {desktop -f,node -d} '{I,II,III,IV,V,VI,VII}'

added output of bspc wm -d | jq '.monitors[]|{name, rectangle}'

{
  "name": "DVI-D-0",
  "rectangle": {
    "x": 0,
    "y": 56,
    "width": 1280,
    "height": 1024
  }
}
{
  "name": "DVI-I-1",
  "rectangle": {
    "x": 1280,
    "y": 0,
    "width": 1920,
    "height": 1080
  }
}

DVI-D-0 = monitor2/left monitor
DVI-I-1 = monitor1/center monitor

@dasith-gunawardhana @faiden Please format code excerpts using code blocks.

@dasith-gunawardhana What's the output of bspc wm -d | jq '.monitors[]|{name, rectangle}'?

[dg10a]

{
  "name": "HDMI1",
  "rectangle": {
    "x": 0,
    "y": 0,
    "width": 1920,
    "height": 1080
  }
}
{
  "name": "LVDS1",
  "rectangle": {
    "x": 0,
    "y": 1080,
    "width": 1366,
    "height": 768
  }
}

Well, the ordering looks fine to me.

I'm afraid you'll have to resort to sorcery: bspc monitor '^1' -s '^2'.
