Transparency

#261 Post by James186282 »

I haven't beaten up on this much but anyway I thought I would give the latest version of JWM a try on Thar6.03 I really don't see anything different or buggy. So kudos to the wise and powerful Joe!

One question - a long time ago I was hell bent on making my urxvt terminals transparent. I got it sort of working but I think there was something about an older version of JWM that made it iffy. At the time I didn't want to fool with it. With the latest and greatest version I assume thats all solid but I've lost my notes on what exactly to do? I've been fiddling with .Xdefaults and what happens when I turn urxvt*transparent:true is a very dark Blue background replaces my normal AntiqueWhite. And its not at all transparent. I tried to add <opaque>0.5 to the .jwmrc file (or I guess its that _root_.jwmrc file? Gotta look at my cheat sheet on how to change that again.

Sorry to ask these mega lame-o questions. I just got totally stuck and I'm spinning my wheels. Thanks for any 2x4s upside the head to get me back on track.

After installing jwm v-2.3.4 in my puppy tahr 6.0.5 using

Code: Select all

./configure --prefix=/usr
make
new2dir make install
I couldn't launch pupclockset from my tray.
How to fix that?
Thank you.

Edit:
It is fixed by adding "exec:". So my .jwmrc-tray changed to be like this:

Code: Select all

<Clock format="%a %d %b %H:%M">exec:PupClockset</Clock>

After compiling jwm v-2.3.5 in my puppy tahr 6.0.5 I got window title buttons disappeared. BTW /usr/share/pixmaps/close.png and other exist.

am I wrong with some compile options?

Code: Select all

./configure --prefix=/usr
make
new2dir make install
Or config files has changed?

UPDATE:

Got it worked after changing .PNG files to .SVG..
so It looks like 'JWM Buttons Theme' changer won't be working until the fix for copying svg files without converting to png into /usr/share/pixmaps/
