Hi! @vaxerski How are you? I'm experiencing the same issue using the Zen browser when applying these rules:

PIP

windowrule = float, title:^(.*Picture.in.(P|p)icture)
windowrule = pin, title:^(.*Picture.in.(P|p)icture)
windowrule = keepaspectratio, title:^(.*Picture.in.(P|p)icture)
windowrule = move onscreen 100% 100%, title:^(.*Picture.in.(P|p)icture)

I tested them one by one, and the problem seems to be with the last rule when it tries to move the window upon startup.

The Zen version I'm using is: Mozilla Zen 1.12.1b
The Hyprland version is:

Hyprland 0.48.1 built from branch at commit 29e2e59 (version: bump to v0.48.1).
Date: Fri Mar 28 16:16:07 2025
Tag: v0.48.1, commits: 5937
built against:
aquamarine 0.8.0
hyprlang 0.6.1
hyprutils 0.7.0
hyprcursor 0.1.12
hyprgraphics 0.1.3

No flags were set.

To reproduce the bug, open a video and then enable picture-in-picture mode.

P.S.: I don't know how to get the crash logs—if you could guide me, I'd appreciate it!

@vaxerski Sorry for the delay, I had not been able to reply until now.

Hey I have the same issue. Here's my crash log: hyprlandCrashReport1004.txt

Relevant stuff from my config:

windowrule = tag +audiopanel, initialClass:org.pulseaudio.pavucontrol

windowrule = float, tag:audiopanel
windowrule = size 38% 38%, tag:audiopanel
windowrule = move onscreen 100%-w-10 38, tag:audiopanel

Removing the "onscreen" part works. Also, regardless of the crash, it doesn't seem to work as I would expect it to, retaining its full height. That said I'm only just starting to experiment with this and I haven't browsed the source for this section yet to understand what it's doing. Either way a crash shouldn't happen I imagine, and since no crash report was provided I figured I'd provide mine at least.
