Re: Make nautilus manage all desktops

That's it! I now have
awful.rules.rules = {
[…]
{ rule = { class = Nautilus, instance = desktop_window },
properties = { sticky = true } },
[…]
}
and it works like a charm. The desktop icons appear on all
tags and the file manager windows only on the current one.
Thanks! This was a nice and useful rule. I added it to my own
rc.lua too just now.
FWIW, it may be useful to set { border_width = 0 } too for these
Nautilus windows, so that awesome will not add any styling
border around the desktop window. This way it will look
more like a 'real' desktop surface.
Cheers,
Giorgos

Transparent systray background
My wibox is partly transparent, but not the systray within the wibox. It has an ugly black background. How can I apply transparency to the systray background? I guess I have to modify the theme, but I have no idea which values to add or to change. Marco -- To unsubscribe, send mail to awesome-unsubscr...@naquadah.org.

Re: Transparent systray background
Hello, Marco, What Uli meant to say is that Awesome doesn't manage the system tray directly. It rather just tells X server where the tray should be drawn, and then X does it itself. That is why there is very limited way of how you can customize the tray. I myself hate that trash shelf so I try to reduce the number of applications that like to sit there. It's currently only Dropbox and Deluge and I don't need neither of them before my eyes all the time, so I put together a banal script that shows/hides the traybar on demand after a key combination is pressed. If you are interested I can share it somewhere. Regards, Alexander On 01/30/2012 05:26 PM, Marco wrote: My wibox is partly transparent, but not the systray within the wibox.

I myself hate that trash shelf I like it a lot. It provides easy access to programs that run in the background like email client, IM client, battery information and network manager. so I try to reduce the number of applications that like to sit there. ACK. When I see other people's systrays (half the screen width …) I totally understand your feelings :) It's currently only Dropbox and Deluge and I don't need neither of them before my eyes all the time That exactly is what I like. I want to see when I get a message, a mail or my battery runs low, otherwise I can draw the information somewhere on the desktop, there's a lot more space. I put together a banal script that shows/hides the traybar on demand after a key combination is pressed. If you are interested I can share it somewhere. Thanks for the offer, but I think I will refrain from playing around with it. It's nothing that drives me crazy. As a workaround I picked a wallpaper which is black underneath the systray.

Re: Transparent systray background
Also you can use standalone tray application like trayer which supports transparency. It will be not difficult to place tray near your wibar if you have fixed number of icons in tray. -- To unsubscribe, send mail to awesome-unsubscr...@naquadah.org.
RE: awesome in Linux Action Show S04E20
I agree - thanks for sharing the video link - was good to see! 100% agree that awesome is a perfect low memory, powerful GUI for a server and the customization is lovely - could have a few better getting started guides/tutorials, but once you take the lid off, it isn't that hard! I have even just setup Ubuntu Server with Awesome on a BeagleBoard xM [ARM] - Especially sweet given that limited RAM!
