Your welcome .. not quite the same here.

Like I said, you guys have gone far beyond my level of understanding.

that was the first version i made, that went along with the brass look panel

the new archive i just posted has the gray look launcher/panel combination

should have mentioned

you need these programs installed if not already there

BUT, discovered some strange behavior that i need to fix!

xprop
wmctrl
xdotool

but i think you already have those

Yea, I have those, and the new 'conky_panel' works as advertised.
have to look at configuring it next.

Scheech, I'm a guy that can break anything and you ship me a broken package. For a sec there I thought I was batting 1000.

S11 I think being consistent is a good quality to have!
You don't give yourself enough credit!

You got scientific proof of that? {jokin'}

I mean here they talk a great talk about Consistent Quality - notice how they do NOT talk about the Consistent Quality of the FOOD they serve!

Say what? Batting a 1000 is a perfect score and consistent too!

I put the buttons together with the rest of my deadbeef conky so they are no longer seprate conkys.

You can get it here if you want to look at it.

mrpeachy · 2012-04-11 20:18:57

@ sector11 ...well... what can i say? oops?
but dont you hate it when you post something and then 5 minutes later fin out that the thing you posted needs to be unposted!
everything was working earlier... but i guess the script had just come out of a rather intensive re-writing prior to posting
i have to keep things interesting for those of you trying out my scripts!

@arclance
nice work

Oops! works for me, one of my most often used words.

Absolutely ... but I didn't think others did the same thing. Especially mrbean.

And I enjoy keeping you on your toes.

Peachy here is a rough look at what I'm doing with your NEW panel

Unfinished, but I like the direction it is going.

Thank you.
I will take that as a compliment!!

mrpeachy · 2012-04-11 23:10:51

What part of "very nice" & "creative" didn't you understand?

Of course it was a compliment.

and the was to show the "I hate you!" was sarcasm!

As mrpeachy said: that is looking awesome!!!

@SR11, Peachy, falldown: Among teenage girls, "I hate you!" is a high compliment (although I'm sure they use it when sober too); it's a couple steps up from "Shut up!" Kinda like "You magnificent bastard!" among men of a certain age.

I had a girlfriend who insisted on watching things like Gilmore Girls and Sex and the City together. (Yes, that's a reasonable-sounding excuse for knowing this...)

falldown · 2012-04-12 18:37:14

I'm a little closer to being satisfied..

and a video.. which is crappy.

I updated by deadbeef script here is what it looks like now.

I wrote a python script to decrease the number of calls to deadbeef which decreased cpu use, and improved the output formating of the nowplaying data.
I also used deadbeef's global hotkeys and 'xdotool key "keycombo"' to add more buttons.
You can download it by clicking on the image.

Peachy I do get this error..

Conky: Can't read '/proc/0/exe'
Conky: Can't read '/proc/0/exe'
Conky: Can't read '/proc/0/exe'

I have no /proc/0 directory.

yes, i get that too... but it doesnt effect the running of the script
has something to do with the conky pid variables
... havnt gotten around to tracking the source down completely

mrpeachy · 2012-04-12 23:33:12

ok, so fixed the proc 0 problem
but came across some other bugs (mainly editing oversights )

line 452

local window_space=900-window_tly-info_space

should be

local window_space=screen_height-window_tly-info_space

i put in a setting to set screen height in pixels but didnt actually use the variable in that line

also the setting for the window list header is still hard coded, 456

--draw intro title
buttondraw({x=window_tlx,y=window_tly-(window_title_height+(window_gap)),w=window_width,h=window_title_height,oc=window_outline_color_off,oa=1,ic=window_inside_color_off,ia=1,lw=1,d=3,r=5})
out({c=window_text_color_off,x=window_tlx+5,y=window_tly-10,txt="OPEN WIN"})

so need to make some more settings to control that

and ive tried the script out on my other puter (eeepc running gnome 2) and it behaves quite differently that on my main puter using cinnamon... stoopid window manager

Tell me about it!! why can't they all just get along!!

arclance · 2012-04-12 23:42:49

The Fluxbox rightclick menu works on conkys running mrpeachy buttons!
I may just put a script with no buttons on my other conkys just because of this.

falldown · 2012-04-13 23:18:21

Peachy On the topic of my untitled windows.
I figured out that one window was a conky window..
and the other is my Tint2 panel.
Both are an easy fix.

Now I am in the process of dividing the two functions.. (Launcher and Window list)
Having them run in separate conkies.

Launcher running across the top as a panel
and the window list running across the bottom as a panel.
