[SOLVED] Problem properly configuring tint2

naequs · 2011-02-10 13:42:19

hi,
i got, as the title says, a problem configuring tint2.

id like to set it up being on the right of the screen and creating no margin.
however, that doesnt work! i figured its got something to do with that i am using 2 workspaces...

so for now i keep tint2 on the left and set all margins to zero... which doesnt work either -_-
there is a margin on the right side of the screen i cant get rid of.

suggestions ?

post your config file ~/.config/tint2/tint2rc

naequs · 2011-02-10 14:10:03

this is the default config of crunchbang btw, slightly altered.

there is a gui for configuring tint2.

http://code.google.com/p/tintwizard/

naequs · 2011-02-10 16:49:02

yep, i noticed there is.
though i cant edit anything with that. seems buggy to me...

to be more precise, the output of $ tint2conf is;

your parameters doesn't respect documentation "panel_position = left center vertical"

panel_position = center left vertical

check the documentation here http://code.google.com/p/tint2/wiki/Configure#Panel
