[e-users] HAL/D-Bus get in the way of modifier keys

2008-01-20 Thread Asfand Yar Qazi
Hi,

I use Shift+Win+Left/Right/Up/Down to navigate desktops.

I want HAL running with e17, so I can do removable drive automounting
magic-ness on my HTPC box.

However, I find that with HAL and D-Bus running, I these modifiers don't work.

Apon further investigation using xev, it seems with HAL/D-Bus running,
Shift and Win get pressed fine - but when I press Left/Right/etc., the
Win key (Super_L) gets released according to xev even though I've
still got it depressed.

Anybody know what's happening?

Thanks

[e-users] Translating mouse events to key presses for certain apps (ala imwheel)

2007-12-22 Thread Asfand Yar Qazi
Hi,

I have a mouse with a mouse wheel that goes left/right.  I use imwheel
to do stuff like tab-switching in firefox and mrxvt.  I've recently
discovered a cool use in E17 - hold down WIN key, and use mouse wheel
up/down/left/right to navigate my desktops.

However, I find that some applications, especially those that imwheel
is set to use, block this functionality in E17, even though that
particular mouse button binding is not used.

I was just wondering - is there a way E17 can do this instead of
imwheel?  When reading in mouse wheel presses, pass on key presses to
the application?  That way, I wouldn't have to use imwheel, which I
assume grabs the the mouse buttons when the window it is configured
for is active, regardless of whether or not the button combination
pressed is actually used, thereby stopping E17 from receiving it.

Thanks

You can't.  the E17 team aren't concentrating on translucency and
bells/whistles like that - bling is all you've got.  A recent query to
Rasterman  about it got me the answer that it is translucency support
like in E16 is not expected to be included in E17, but may be in E18.

If you compile as a non-root user and don't specify a prefix, it
installs them into your personal .e directory - very handy.

I didn't mean for everything (composite's not really mature enough for
mainstream general usage anyway, I still get corruption and lockups
now and then, so the decision to not target it for this version  is
probably the right one), I merely meant I'll have to re-emerge e16 for
those few moments when I want to play around with composite :-)

On a related note, is it possible for a module to put entries into a
windows menus?  Like for example "opacity level"?  :-)

[e-users] Composite queries

2006-10-10 Thread Asfand Yar Qazi
Hi,

I don't want people to think I'm making demands or anything, but I
would just like to know when e17 will have the excellent compositing
translucency support of e16?  Notably setting window transparencies on
the fly for each window?

Also, I'm looking into 'mrxvt' (sorry Eterm, my previous terminal of
choice, but it has Freetype support which therefore has sub-pixel
rendering support) and noted that it also has compositing support of
its own, but requires xcompmgr to be running.  The  translucency
changing stuff in it doesn't seem to work while Bling is activated -
has Bling been designed to let apps written for xcompmgr run with it?

Thanks

I started again, cleared my config, copied across my

Wah?!?!

[e-users] Desktop switching display - stays on screen for too long

2006-08-29 Thread Asfand Yar Qazi
Hi,

I notice  that while I work (yes, I use E17 at work :)  ) I have a
habit of quickly switching between desktops that do various things
(mainly a virtual desktop for the browser, and another one for Emacs).

However, I find that, when I switch and then start focusing on what
I'm doing, the virtual desktop switching dialog thingy gets in the
way, and I find myself having to wait to make it go away.

Is there any way to reduce the time the virtual desktop switching
dialog stays on the screen?  Or even (preferably) turn it off
altogether?

The 'desktop switching dialog', as I call it, is the thing that says
"Desktop 0, 0" or whatever as the virtual desktops are being switched.

Love this list - do I get features included in the next version of
Windows if I talk to Bill Gates?  No.  Do I get features included in
the next release of E if I talk to Rasterman et al?  Yes :-)

Thanks,
Asfand Yar

And - although I appreciate what you mean - you can stop moaning
please.  I took it on topic by calling for enlightenment_remote to
generate lists of bindings that would make it easier to use in such
scripts, and was expecting the conversation to continue about that.
Sorry, but I don't see the point of a "discussion" list being kept so
tightly under control that you can't even have a bit of friendly
chit-chat while discussing perfectly relavent material.

You're getting ruby confused with rails :-)  I used Ruby here in place
of Perl, since I don't like the idea of running about 5 programs in
backquotes and pipes when 1 will do. Please explain to me the merits
of starting about 5 programs when you can just use one to interpret a
single file?  Using "The Best Syntax Ever"?  :-)

What would be really nice is if enlightenment_remote would read in a
list of commands from a text file (e.g.):

binding-key-add ALL F1 NONE FALSE XXX WAZZA
binding-mouse-add BORDER BOBOBOBO STUFFIT XXX
etc
etc

Since e_remote reads in values in this format anyway, I think I may
just write another ruby script.  What is difficult is parsing the
values returned by the -get-* methods.  Perhaps there should be a flag
in e_remote to output values in the same format the -set-* commands
expect the arguments?  Hmm I feel a patch coming up.

[e-users] Script to change all uses of ALT to WIN

2006-08-25 Thread Asfand Yar Qazi
I don't know if it's already been done, but here's a little script
that reads in all key bindings from enlightenment_remote, and
substitutes all uses of ALT with WIN.

Just thought it might be useful to someone.  If there's a better
solution out there, please tell me!

#!/usr/bin/ruby -w

DEBUG=false

args[2].gsub!("ALT", "WIN")
"enlightenment_remote -binding-key-del '#{args.join("' '")}'"
end

def mkaddcmd(*args)

end

keylist = `enlightenment_remote -binding-key-list`

for line in keylist
line.chomp!

(Still talking to myself)

Update: when minimising from the Window menu (ALT+right-click or right
click on title bar) it DOES  appear in the ibox.  It's only when
pressing the minimise button on the window title bar that it does NOT
appear.

Sorry, got carried away there.

So what goes in all/, and what goes in menu/all ?

Yet the other problem still remains (and I have experimented with it
to narrow it down more): minimising something with the 'minimize'
button on the title bar of the window makes the window NOT appear in
ibox.  But minimizing it some other way (e.g. in Emacs, pressing
CTRL+Z, or using 'Show/Hide all Windows') does put it in the ibox.
How can I fix this?

Thanks, open source products no doubt have the best customer service!  :-)

Argh I spent enough time getting everything the way  Iike it oh well

Is there any way I can generate a list of commands that can can be
reread by enlightenment_remote?

[e-users] Favourites and All Applications menu empty, minimized apps don't appear in ibox

2006-08-24 Thread Asfand Yar Qazi
Hi,

I'm having serious problems here.  The all applications and favouries
menu has disappeared.  I'm using a similar .order file for my ibar, so
that can't be the problem.

Also, when I minimise stuff, it doesn't appear in the ibox.  Yet when
I do a show/hide all windows, they do appear in the ibox.

What config files do you need me to look in to see what's happening?

And I started a brand new e17 session with a completely different user
(i.e. all config files were generated from scratch) and this problem
wasn't apparent.

Help?

Thanks

I just found out this was a common problem with 0.16.8.2, sorry 'bout
the post.  However, I have another question: how do I change the
border style with eesh?  And where's the eesh docs in general?

Hi,

For some reason, the "Set Border Style" menu in e16 doesn't work.  I'm

You probably use a a single row of desktops.  I use 2 rows of 4
columns each.  When I press 'ctrl+alt+left' on the top-left desktop,
it does loop around - to the bottom-right one.  I want it to go to the
top-right one (like in e16).

Thanks for the replies.  Think I'll stick to e16 for now due to
familiarity, but e17 has almost become a necessary "upgrade".

Unfortunately, this is not what I meant.  linear_flip_by, when it
wraps around, also goes down a row.  i.e. in a 4x4 desktop (upper left
desktop coord being (1, 1)  ), if (1, 1) is the current desktop, and I
press ctrl+alt+left, I want (1, 4) to become the current desktop.
Linear flipping makes (2, 4) the current desktop.

Re: [e-users] A few questions

While I'm at it, I'd like to add a few more questions:

What about lowering/raising windows from their menu?

Will there ever be a conventional 'taskbar' type thing ala gnome-panel?

[e-users] A few questions

2006-05-30 Thread Asfand Yar Qazi
e17 rocks.  But a few questions:

Is it possible for engage to appear above other windows?  The
blossoming flower-type effect for all open instances of each
application is pretty and all, but kind of useless if it happens below
the other windows.


How do I stop engage listing some icons?  For example, I start the
Jabber client Gajim and gkrellm2.  gkrellm2 correctly stays out of
engage, but how do I take gajim out?


How do I get the virtual desktop switching to wrap around?  So when
I'm at the left-most virtual desktop and do a 'ctrl+alt+left', it
wraps around to the right-most virtual desktop.

[e-users] Using 'Super_L' key instead of 'Alt' for fancy special stuff

2006-05-27 Thread Asfand Yar Qazi

Hi,

I asked about enlightenment 16 a couple of months ago about how to use
the 'Super_L' key for doing special stuff (like moving windows around
with left mouse button, and resizing them with middle mouse button)
and was happy when I got the answer.  Now on e16, I always use the
Super_L key for that stuff.

Now I'd like to do that on e17.  I can't find a mapping for a 'super
special mouse-moving-and-other-fancy-stuff' to Alt in the key editor,
but I'm sure there is a way.  Could you tell me how I can set this set
of key bindings?

Thanks

Assuming you have Super_L/R as modifier 4 (use xmodmap):
e16 - 0.16.8:
Copy /usr/share/e16/bindings.cfg to .e16/ and change modifier 'A' to '4'.
Earlier versions:
Copy /usr/share/enlightenment/keybindings.cfg to .enlightenment/ and 
change __ALT to __WINDOWS_KEY, __CTRL_ALT to __CTRL_META4, etc.

Ah, great!  Many thanks!

[e-users] Using 'Meta_L' or 'Super_L' key instead of 'Alt_L' as e16's "special" key

2006-02-16 Thread Asfand Yar Qazi

Hi,

I've always loved the way I can use the Alt key for doing stuff on windows.

However, I recently tried KDE 3.5 - and it lets me use the 'Windows' key 
instead!  In my xorg.conf file, I set the keyboard type to "pc101" instead of 
"pc104", and now Emacs also uses the Alt key instead of Meta, basically 
leaving the Windows key on my keyboard for all my Enlightenment inspired 
window jiggery - sweet.  Before all this, I'd be stuck when apps used 
Alt+click, for example, because e16 wouldn't let the click through - thank you 
KDE...


But no thanks.  I miss e16.  I miss the way Alt+middle-click would open up the 
Window menu letting me do all sorts of goofy stuff.  I miss the way that, even 
though I've configured KDE to switch desktops using "Shift+Alt+left/right", I 
can only select from a menu which desktop I want to switch to, and when I let 
go it switches - I want the desktop to switch instantly as soon as I press 
left/right!  I don't like KDE's "All desktops appear in a line", I want to 
configure the number of rows/columns of desktops I use.


I tried using xev, and it seems that with a pc104 keyboard, the Windows key 
produces 'Meta_L/R' events, but with the keyboard set as pc101 in the 
xorg.conf file, it produces 'Super_L/R'.  As mentioned already, apps like 
emacs now don't detect the windows key as meta.  Just something I'd mention 
for those who may be interested in doing something like this.


Anyway, to cut a long story short, how do I get e16 to use the 'Super_L/R' 
keys instead of 'Alt_L/R' for special operations on windows?


Thanks,
  Asfand Yar
