Describe the bug
Toggling copyq via copyq toggle opens the window ever lower and to the right of previous window location, eventually wrapping and starting from the center again.
To Reproduce Toggle the window constantly and observe the window movement between the toggles.
Expected behavior Window should open & close without changing its position
