Easiest way to explain is to show you the config for the above bar:
screens = [
Screen(
top=bar.Bar(
[
widget.CurrentLayoutIcon(),
widget.GroupBox(
highlight_method="line",
this_current_screen_border=palette[1],
urgent_border=palette[3]
),
widget.Prompt(),
widget.WindowName(),
widget.TextBox(text="WidgetBox allows you to declutter your
bar..."),
* widget.WidgetBox(widgets=[*
* widget.TextBox(name="t2", text="Button events
are passed to underlying widgets"),*
*
widget.Image(filename="/home/anto/Documents/scripts/github/qtile/tvh/tvhwidget/tvhlib/icon.svg")]*
* ),*
widget.QuickExit(
default_text="[X]",
countdown_format="[{}]",
countdown_start=2,
),
],
24,
opacity=0.8,
),
),
]
Basically, you just put the widgets that you want to hide in the WidgetBox
when it's created.
I've still got quite a bit of testing to do but, as a proof of concept,
it's looking good so far.
