Yes, now that you say this, it's quite like other WM panel.
For the New widget window, you have the choice between common widgets, like
clock that only need a few arguments (format, color, battery ID, etc...) or
custom widgets that you can create from base widgets with custom callbacks
that you hav
Hi Mohan,
Why bash script? I don't think that GUI settings is something you'd want to
automate. And even if it were (or you just prefer console tools over GUI),
it's rather inconvenient to setup with a script. E.g. widgets with their
order - with a script you won't have any ability to move them ar
Ah, I see now. At the beginning I was thinking about something like
"Drag-n-drop Lua with Awesome bindings".
So, you want to see something that most major WM have. The only thing that
I don't quite understand on your picture is the "New Widget" dialog. How
will this work? As far as I can see you w
It would be good to have a bash driven script where one can choose widgets
with their order, menu entries with order, keyboard/ mouse shortcuts, theme
or background colour, fonts etc. It should produce rc.lua and a back up of
the last good rc.lua.

Yes, something like this, but without the UI design part (that seems to be
quite difficult to make), because as I remember, in awesome, wiboxes can
only be on top, left, right, bottom, not anywhere on screen.
I will do some sketches this evening.

You can see how Qt Designer handles signals and slots (it's how Qt
implemented callbacks) at this video:

Yes, some sketch or use case will surely help.

Hi Eugene,
Thanks for the answer. I never used Qt Designer so I don't very know what
it looks like. But I imagine that you can define your tags (with shifty or
not), define your common widgets (with common callbacks and format (for
example for clock, volume, battery), or custom (if you have partic
Hi Alexis,
I think it's an interesting idea, at least from the development challenge
perspective.
But how do you see it? Will it be something like Qt Designer, so a user
will be available to define new widgets, configure and add them to his
desktops? Or something that will change only the existin
Hello folks !
I've got an idea. What about an AwesomeWM configuration generator. A small
soft which allow new users to easily discover all (or at least many)
options that awesome offer.
In my head, the most important feature is to generate readable file with
comments which allow anyone to learn a
