Background brightness is not being updated

[madonius]

When wldash is opened and the brightness is adjusted with the keyboard keys¹ the bar does not change.
Restarting wldash displays the updated value.

The same issue can not be observed with the volume. The displayed bar is being updated in "real time".

¹ sway config: bindsym XF86MonBrightnessDown exec light -U 10

Yeah, brightness is not currently monitored. That will require fsnotify configured on the /sys/ files.

The PulseAudio widgets gets the updates from libpulse.

Should I close the issue?

[kennylevinsen]

Nah, doesn't hurt to have it open as a feature request.
