Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
A Niri tiling window manager does not display the SafeEyes window above the current screen. Instead, it places the window into a fullscreen column, triggering a scrolling animation.
Describe the solution you'd like
Instead of creating a regular window, SafeEyes should create a layer shell if supported, or include an option in the configuration file to manually enable this feature.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Currently, SafeEyes is mostly usable with Niri but does not lock the screen if triggered while the window manager is in overview mode.
Additional context
This issue was previously discussed in #700. Also there is discussion in Niri repo.
Here is sceenshot of SafeEyes that was activated while window manager being in overview mode:
