For the newer version that supports both SteamVR and Monado, see WlxOverlay S.
A lightweight OpenVR overlay for Wayland and X11 desktops, inspired by XSOverlay.
Primarily made this because I couldn't find a proper desktop overlay for Linux.
Formerly known as X11Overlay.
Features:
- Access your screens from within OpenVR / SteamVR
- Works with a huge variety of setups, including tiling window managers.
- Mouse pointer that supports left/right/middle click
- Customizable keyboard with 2-hand typing
- Watch panel that shows:
- Local time + 2 customizable time zones
- Battery states of SteamVR controllers + all connected trackers
- Volume rocker (customizable)
- Toggles for screens / keyboard
- Notifications system with support for VRCX and Dbus (Desktop) notifications

- Dragging curved displays very close may make them disappear. Long click the toggle on the watch to force respawn.
- Wayland: It's possible that your compositor does not implement some of the required protocols. Please create a ticket to let us know in that case.
- Wayland: screencopy can crash, especially with multiple screens up. this is being investigated, recommend wrapping in a restart loop for practical use in the meantime.
