| # How do I get information about windows like the class on wayland? xprop no worky. | ||

| Hyprctl can list available information about all open windows with the command `hyprctl clients`. | ||
| To list only information about a single selected windows, Hyprctl has the command `hyprctl activewindow`. This will output information about the currently active window, which is probably your terminal emulator. You can get informationen from other windows by issueing this command in the shell `sleep 5 && hyprctl activewindow`, focusing the window you want info about and waiting until the five seconds are over. |
