I'm using Waybar as my panel on Sway, and it seems bemenu appears behind the bar now. I can't see it (except for a very thin line and color/movement if I type). For now as a work-around I've been passing the -b argument since there's no panel at the bottom of my screen that would block bemenu, but I'd prefer it at the top.

bemenu v0.4.1
sway version 1.4
Waybar v0.9.3

Did you try the -n argument?

#81 (comment) this issue may also be related. If panel and bemenu occupy the same layer, the order how they are drawn is undefined.

I didn't know about the -n argument, that seems to work well! It moves it a bit lower than it'd be normally, but at least then I don't have to look down.
If you think it's similar enough to that other issue, I'll leave it up to you to close or not. Thanks for the tip, I had only briefly skimmed the man page and this was my first time using bemenu in a few months.

Yeah, the -n only avoids overlapping with other panels. Having the bemenu appear on top of the other panels is related to #81
