i would like to have icons for tag names in dwm. i tried with fonts but it dosn`t work. any idea how to do that?

There is a brief tutorial on the first page of this thread from lokaltog. What isn't working? I made some fonts with icons if you want to try them (terminusmod and tamsynmod). I noticed you use terminus 16. Terminusmod has a 14 and tamsynmod is only 15 for now. Or you can copy some of my icons into your font. It should work (they are the same width). I had to draw mine with bdfedit. I can't figure out how to draw with gbdfed (it crashes when I try to bring up the editor? - maybe you can figure it out). I then cut and pasted the ones I drew into the new font with gbdfed. Just saving it with bdfedit seems to loose some of the original properties. Hope that helps.

And after making my own fonts or using your fonts and after runing fc-cache -vf and restarting X i can`t use those fonts. They are in Xorg font folder but i cant use them

stlarch · 2011-11-12 17:48:48

You'll have to add something like

xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/local
xset fp rehash

to your .xinitrc

lutherus · 2011-11-12 18:01:58

aperently rebooting solved it
now it`s working.
only one stupit question, where is in tamsynmod the arch logo? on wich key?

stlarch · 2011-11-12 18:10:18

Here's a link to that thread https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=129275 . It has a screenshot of the icons.

thx. i owe you a beer

Here's a useful trick I discovered while making my DWM statusbar script:

If you're using @stlarch's Tamsynmod font and also want to use some Unicode symbols that the default "fixed" font supports, then specify both fonts in your DWM font definition:

static const char font[]            = "-*-tamsynmod-medium-r-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
                                      ","
                                      "-*-fixed-medium-r-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*";

Cheers.

Hello dwm hackers!

Does anybody know how to make dwm to switch to the tag where application is started according to the config "Rules"? viewontag patch works only with already started applications. And there is hint for applications that are launched via dmenu. But these two methods do not suit for applications started through command line or file type associations from file managers. How to do that kind of "shifting"?

JokerBoy · 2011-12-07 18:24:45

what version of dwm are you using?

Next7 · 2011-12-07 19:10:50

I'm using dwm 5.9 with several patches.

JokerBoy · 2011-12-07 19:13:11

you see, dwm 5.9 already has that feature that I find annoying..

It is good news for me, but I've tried both vanilla dwm 5.9 and dwm-hg with no avail, no shifting occurs. How should I enable that feature?

Cloudef · 2011-12-17 20:49:36

Here is the latest menu patch for dwm-hg, tested and works under Xephyr.
Fancy colors code path isn't tested, but should work.

vYnNlYg
https://gist.github.com/1293166

If you want to use it with 5.9 instead of hq, just add the motionnotify part manually.
(if someone does this, do kindly post patch for that.)

Some changes such,
- Calculate text width with TEXTW for non XFT fonts,
- Use menu width instead text length for determining mouse area,
- Draw separators using lines, instead of characters.

Thank you, now I can start from scratch again with dwm (Libreoffice started for its self randomly).

Can somebody modify pertag2 patch for dwm 6.0? I tried to hand-patch it, but some code is very different in 6.0 (nmaster is now in vanilla dwm).
https://raw.github.com/ok100/dwm/b28137 … rtag2.diff

JokerBoy · 2011-12-19 17:09:26

I'm using this (pertag2+nbstack) for dwm-hg which ATM is the same as 6.0 release, but it doesn't have a patch for config.h..

OK100 · 2011-12-19 17:34:16

^^ Thanks, your patch works.

And another thing, tilemovemouse also doesn't work:

You can find details about ptrtomon => recttomon and INRECT => INTERSECT here.

I don't use that patch so good luck with that.

OK100 · 2011-12-19 19:36:52

I'm not sure about these two lines:

if((m = ptrtomon(c->x + c->w / 2, c->y + c->h / 2)) != selmon) {
changed to:
if((m = recttomon(c->x, c->y, c->w, c->h)) != selmon) {

else if(INRECT(x, y, d->x, d->y, d->w+2*borderpx, d->h+2*borderpx)){
changed to:
else if(INTERSECT(x, y, d->w+2*borderpx, d->h+2*borderpx, m)){

Now it compiles, but don't work (windows moves randomly, and flickers while moving).

Well, anybody who shied away from dwm because of floating window oddities and fullscreen games crapping out need no longer worry, dwm 6 seems to have sorted it! Tried some games that were problematic before and they work just fine now.

Fiddling with uselessgaps and statuscolors for 6.0 atm.

el mariachi · 2011-12-20 12:49:47

Finally! I'll try it right away!

Try using one patch at a time to identify the patch which is causing that issue. Feel free to give some feedback regarding this, maybe someone will find a fix for your issue.

Meh, that's a shame

Games I've tested fullscreen so far that crapped out on 5.9

Amnesia-tdd
ScummVM
Mupen64plus
Dolphin-Emu

All seem fine now.

As for patching, my usual non coder approach of trying to wedge in patches that won't patch manually isn't working too well at all, I guess some functions have been totally reworked and some patches will need the same treatment.

JokerBoy, do you know why I see one border on my second monitor when i´m using monocle_no_borders.diff?
