I'm completely new to tiled WMs and dzen/bar so I just hijacked easysid's dzen setup (because his was the easiest to understand and modify).

Crosspost from May screenshot thread

The panel is bar, with info piped from conky.

Hi, could someone maybe help me please? I used to use awesome and then moved to openbox and been wanting to go back to awesome or an alternative so i installed bspwm.

I tried using some configs but my top panels are always messy such as this :

Other one i tried it would display the icon names instead of the icons and the color codes like #FFFFF etc, any help would be appreciated, cheers.

Hi, what you're seeing in your bar is the old formatting syntax. Take a look at the manpage and update your scripts.

cpoon · 2014-06-05 22:21:06

Gotcha, tried easysid's dotfiles and that worked , thanks!

hibajugala · 2014-06-11 21:55:55

haven't changed anything in a while, but haven't posted either.

cpoon · 2014-06-12 07:36:00

Could you post your dotfiles please ? (github is empty) but love the look!

hibajugala · 2014-06-12 14:16:48

Thanks! I'll post dotfiles on github later today (never got around to it).

I wanted to ask the same question in the Screenshots topic that is pinned haha! But got my answer now

cpoon · 2014-06-12 15:17:53

Awesme, thanks hibajugala .

Will start editing the files you made available already so it's easier to get it all running when you finish uploading the rest heh.

I still have to configure certain things (like some fonts, ranger, mutt) which I haven't gotten a chance to do yet, but glad you guys like it!

cpoon · 2014-06-12 17:54:58

Just to make sure is there anything missing to make it work? i configured everything and it looks like this atm http://i.imgur.com/oUKAPzq.jpg, everything is running, panel statusbar panel_dzen panel_dzen_right etc.

Just wondering, i think i adapted all paths to my own in the configs.

Do get a (standard_in) 1: illegal character: :
(standard_in) 1: syntax error spamm when running panel dzen2 / statusbar but that's the only 'error' left from what i've seen,

@cpoon do you have txtw installed (it's in the Baskerville github, maybe in aur), and what version of dzen are you using?

cpoon · 2014-06-13 05:34:36

Hi, do have txtw and dzen2 i tried the dzen2 from community, dzen2-git dzen2 and dzen2-xft-xpm-xinerama-git and all ended up not having icons sadly, any specific version i should use?

cpoon · 2014-06-13 06:03:36

I think it's something in the configs still maybe heh, the illegal error comes from apple_mpd for me but the thing is when i run statusbar the icons will show up like /wifi_02.xbm, need to see what's causing that, and then will let you know, going to copy over all files frmo fresh again to make things easier lol. Either way if you end up having any ideas let me know please .

Welp fixed that and still no icons, interestingly when i hit rm -rf panel before starting new some stuff actually showed up there lol, but yeah atm even tho cat /tmp/panel-fifo-second is displaying the right icons etc and everything is running i'm still where i was last screenshot.

-ncmpcpp in urxvt
-dwb

-droid sans font(s)

still WIP. i need some advice, i want to add some xdotool feature under the battery and clock icon. my idea is, when i click on battery icon then a box pop up and show me the machine uptime, and clicking on clock icon should give me a calendar. since i'm a newbie (and i don't know much about programming language), would you give me some suggestions on what should i do?

There is also a way to implement XMonad-like window swapping where each monitor shares from the same pool of desktops.

I've been looking for something like this for a while -- I was shocked that I seemed to be one of the only ones not bothered by the division of desktops between monitors. I understand the reasons behind it from a developer's perspective, but at least as far as my workflow goes, my need for certain windows in certain locations is fluid, especially since my latop may or may not be plugged into a monitor at any given time. Rigging up hotkeys to bump desktops between monitors is an annoying workaround at best for me.

Has somebody already implemented something of this sort? I am planning on writing my own script for this, but I'd be curious to see someone else's implementation as well.

This is how I implemented virtual desktops accessible from either monitor of my multihead setup..

alt + {1-9,0}
  D={1-9,0}; \
  M=$(bspc query --monitors --desktop $D); \
  if [[ $(bspc query --desktops --monitor $M | wc -l) -gt 1 ]]; then \
    if [[ $(bspc query --desktops --desktop focused) != $D ]]; then \
      bspc desktop $D --to-monitor focused; \
      bspc desktop $D --focus; \
    fi; \
  elif [[ $(bspc query --monitors --monitor focused) != $M ]]; then \
    bspc desktop DVI-0:focused --swap DVI-1:focused; \
  fi;
