[SOLVED] Nitrogen don't read the Images into the Folder

giuseppesanna · 2014-10-20 18:17:15

Hi guys! I've a problem with another PC where I installed Crunch 11.

I can not set the Wallpaper. When I open Nitrogen(Choose Wallpaper), it don't show me the images into the set folder.
The Nitrogen file is Correctly Set:

[geometry]
posx=513
posy=34
sizex=450
sizey=500

[nitrogen]
view=list
icon_caps=false
dirs=/home/giuseppe/Pictures/Wallpapers/;

The Path is correct:

giuseppe@LB-ECH:~$ cd /home/giuseppe/Pictures/Wallpapers/
giuseppe@LB-ECH:~/Pictures/Wallpapers$

I don't understand the problem. Can you help me?

Thanks very much! And, as usual, I'm sorry for my terrible english!

SOLUTION:

I edit the file "menu.xml". In the section "Chose Wallpaper" I change the correctly path and, after a Restart OpenBox, Nitrogen read correctly the images.

Do the following commands work?

nitrogen --restore

or

nitrogen --set-auto /home/giuseppe/Pictures/Wallpapers/name-of-image

So, just to make sure I understand what you're asking for, you want Nitrogen - when opened from the right-click menu - to open with the directory you set in its Preferences window?

You need to edit the menu. I prefer to directly edit the menu.xml file, but using the Openbox GUI menu editor is fine too. Find the line with "nitrogen ~/images/wallpapers/" and remove "~/images/wallpapers/", then reconfigure Openbox.

Et voila! Thanks very much!

Next time!!
