What's the font in this one? And did you do anything special as for font rendering?

TheImmortalPhoenix · 2012-04-22 14:33:27

GTK theme is MCV (i modified background and selection color, you can use gimp on my screenshot to see the code of the color if you want to edit it by yourself)

I did not use something special for fonts, i've just installed freetype2 and fontconfig packages but i did not edit any config...
Fonts are Termsyn (awesome) and Ubuntu Light 8 (system)

Please don't judge the trees:

created some nice notifications using just naughty and images. it isnt very elegant, but it works great!
messenger is mcabber.

icons: https://github.com/intrntbrn/icons/tree/master/noti

volume has 20 icons to display 5% volume changes. (one is mute)
brightness has 15 icons to display the 15 different brightness lvls

rc.lua:

function closeLastNoti()
    screen = mouse.screen
    for p,pos in pairs(naughty.notifications[screen]) do
        for i,n in pairs(naughty.notifications[screen][p]) do
			if (n.width == 258) then -- to close only previous bright/vol notifications
            naughty.destroy(n)
            break
            end
        end
    end
end

-- volume notifaction

volnotiicon = nil

function volnoti()
			        closeLastNoti()
                                naughty.notify{
				icon = volnotiicon,
                                position = "top_right",
				fg="#0a0a0b",
				bg="#426797",
				timeout=1,
				width = 256,
				gap = 0,
			}
end

brightnotiicon = nil

function brightnoti()
			        closeLastNoti()
			        naughty.notify{
				icon = brightnotiicon,
                                position = "top_right",
				fg="#0a0a0b",
				bg="#426797",
				timeout=1,
				width = 256,
				gap = 0,
			}
end

-- sample binds: (sexec = awful.util.spawn_with_shell):

    awful.key({}, "#122", function () sexec("sh ~/bin/vol.sh down" ) end),
    awful.key({}, "#123", function () sexec("sh ~/bin/vol.sh up") end),
    awful.key({}, "#121", function () sexec("sh ~/bin/vol.sh mute") end),
    awful.key({}, "#233", function () sexec("sh ~/bin/bright.sh") end), -- brightness worked out of the box, so i dont have to change to brightness in sh
    awful.key({}, "#232", function () sexec("sh ~/bin/bright.sh") end), -- brightness worked out of the box, so i dont have to change to brightness in sh

bright.sh: just reads the brightness value; sets the right image and calls the naughty notification.

@intrntbrn Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

TheImmortalPhoenix · 2012-04-24 22:52:13

Hello, does anyone know how to replace icons with letters in mylayoutbox? I mean that when i'm on floating/fair/whatever layout i don't want the icon to be shown but i want that "floating"/"fair"/"whatever" is shown instead

intrntbrn · 2012-04-25 00:00:35

just read the references! awesome.naquadah.org/doc/api/modules/awful.layout.html

to get the name: (didnt tested)

awful.layout.getname(awful.layout.get(mouse.screen))

make a textwidget, which is automatically updated by layout switches.
maybe theres an easier way.

Please excuse my ignorance if this is the wrong forum/thread for this question.

I am new to Arch and am looking to try out a WM (never used one before) and was looking to use Awesome WM. One question however, what audio/media player are most of you using, or does it come with one already?

Look at previous pages i added my configs in which there is the widget you are interested to...it's called calendar.lua

I'm using MPD running on my Homeserver and as client ncmpcpp. So i can connect over the Network with my server and control the music on the local machine.

i think he wants more something like: https://awesome.naquadah.org/wiki/Blingbling
this calendar widgets has task warrior support. maybe theres a google calendar plugin for task warrior.

Hi men, i've have a problem with pacman widget..sorry if i ask here but i think that the problem is so stupid that it's foolish to open a thread apart...anyway, in my pacman.conf i ignored 3 packages and so the widgets always show 3 available upgrades...is there a way to show 0 instead of 3? Maybe messing with wc. cut and sed commands...

Meanwhile i show you my new stop wibox...i've integrated menu and prompts (run and run in terminal):

I don't think, that there is a chance to get them away or to tell the widget not to show ignored Packages. The output in the widget is

pacman -Qu

and the manpage says nothing about a function to ignore the ignored packages. would be fine, if there's an other solution for that.

New to Awesome but I'm lovin it. My desktop is pretty much standard Zenburn but I will show it bc there are a few changes.

Clean:

Dirty:

I had a couple quick questions that I thought might be able to be answered here rather than starting a new topic. I tried looking back through the thread but I didn't make it through all 30 pages so they may have been answered before (Sorry if they were).

1. Is there a way to get the pacman updates widget to show the updates available without manually doing a pacman -Syy?

2. Does anyone got a good way to add Reboot and Shutdown entries to the menu that won't require a password? I tried a few ideas but the only way I could get it to work is to use "gksu".

Sorry for the long post. Thanks for all the info everyone has posted on this thread. I think I got more help from here than the wiki when transitioning to Awesome .

I can't remember where I read it but I saw someone else with the same issue somewhere and he said that he changed the widget script to return '' if the value is 0 or 3 (for him I think it was 1 but same concept should work).
