RC2 had the older version of Wallpaper-0.5.1 (I think). Installing the later version Wallpaper-0.5.3 may solve some of these problems. It makes the backgrounds play nice with Pwidgets instead of fighting them for top spot. Worth a try.

Hope that helps.

Hi guys

Tv working fine on lappy with the '#' at line 30 in ~/.pwidgets/plugins/tv/functions.

Had an issue with 'Mail' not following theme. It helped once added the pdingo bat '2' in frontand altered the colours but still strange, appears it should be ok OOTB.

Rob, why did you gravitate back so quickly?

Even posting in the rc2 thread. I just avoid that place. If I have abug I 'll report it but I couldn't be bothered reading that thread. If the bug is already reported too bad, let 'em tear strips off me!

Cheers!

HOWTO updated, old info removed from main post, weather howto added to main post.

Rob, why don't you write a 'Mail' HOWTO, post it there (see my sig for link) and I'll paste it in the main post. The idea being, all howtos for pwidgets are only a click away.

Trio, if you can think of anything to add, do it.

Cheers.

Version 1.9-10
See main post

- Slideshow plugin
- Tv widget fixed
- Weather height 85
- Default channel change, easy, I vote skynews, works everytime... ------> Done
- Plugins - Cluster - run several profils -- profiles you meant
- edited profiles in cluster but it didn't work. Seemed to print to relevant files but failed in execution. -------> Answer: Calender - Now fixed
- /root/Startup/show_widgets --> /root/Startup/0_show_widgets
- 2 clocks ??? - Not here. I need a closer look. Have anyone found the reason?

PLUGINS

Trio wrote:It's not pop to pop up the plugin before you the widgets tree is popped..ok pop?

Calling '$APPDIR/func -apply' builds tree, so for 1.9-10 all tree-building is removed from plugins. Also much simpler to have only one place where widgets tree is formed. I think the end-user would like the help the plugins give. I have split the plugins in system plugins (sidebar, theme and cluster) and in widget related plugins. I will personally uncheck the auto-pop-plugin option, but most users will build their widget list rarely, so I leave it checked (for now). Let's play a while with it. It is easy to change if there are much negative response

Reminder, please also update wallpaper setter linked in main post

Sigmund

Clock is not double anymore. last time is only the first install, now ok

Tv channel chooser works great, I know what you meant now, now the plugin is actually an extention of func -apply, cool!

Let's see other things, and i'll report if something's funny

trio · #1428 Post by **trio** » Wed 11 Mar 2009, 02:16

Sigmund,

why do we have options choose clock hands color when it's not working for dark & light, they only follow theme?

01micko · #1429 Post by **01micko** » Wed 11 Mar 2009, 03:07

1.9-10 Working fine so far

I concurr, Trio

(off topic... check my site, updated today with some of bugman's ideas)

Guys,

I've mistakenly lured to answer about pwidgets in 4.2 rc2 thread...No..no more...enough of that...

I'll check out your site Mick

trio · #1431 Post by **trio** » Wed 11 Mar 2009, 03:31

Guys

Would it be possible to change the thread name to:

Pwidgets ** - Desktop widgets for Puppy 4 series????

Really, I don't care if pwidgets is included in 4.2 or not (not anymore), but this is just me, you guys are entitled to say differently.....I'm still here because I learn things and made friends, for me that's what puppy's all about....togetherness...

As for 4.2? I think it's best to let Whodo decides...he's a pop

already..grandpop even....he's wise I'm sure........

Today widget

date is not centered even with $alignc, i have to manually adjust it with space..

trio · #1434 Post by **trio** » Wed 11 Mar 2009, 05:08

Downspeed..

I always used wireless and downspeed never failed me...today I just wanted to try lan cable (eth0), it worked in a way that the script parsed eth0 to downspeed config...but it also parsed wlan0! so both network are working at the same time and it messed downspeed widget up! it only can auto scan 1 module only!

people have to deactivate one module before conncting with another module ...and I don't know how to do that with puppy?

Cluster is buggy,

Slideshow in pupp_right is exactly 80 pixels left

I edited in the blabla/puppy_right/xli script to correct for me. When I edit the list it doesn't work, still displays defaults, must edit the scripts, ok for trio, but my slow brain?

In system left same applies.

I got it how I wanted and it looks nice

Mick, try making a NEW left side profile and use that with the right side, not the pre-made one

Edit: no no..that's not your question

Good afternoon for me that is....

There's something funny allright...

A bling or not to bling poll is funny!!

what's next? JWM or ICEWM poll?
Abiword vs OpenOffice poll?
I can think of many polls..

Or let's ditch Zigbert's work poll...hahahaha

I can't stop laughing...

Ok, now back to widget ... weather is overlapping with world time below it..I think It's world time height fault....

Mick

I cannot find anything wrong with my bling left & right desktop

When I use cluster, the slide show is exactly 80 pixels left of where it should be. It is printed so in "~/.pwidgets/profiles/Puppy___right/pwidgets-exec_xli"

Code: Select all

#Pwidgets
xli -geometry +1100+385 /root/.pwidgets/misc/frame.jpg &
sleep 1
xli -geometry +1107+392 -delay 5 -goto /root/.pwidgets/misc/scaledimages/01.png /root/.pwidgets/misc/scaledimages/*.png &

as compared to "~/.pwidgets/pwidgets-exec_xli"

Code: Select all

#Pwidgets
xli -geometry +1180+455 /root/.pwidgets/misc/frame.jpg &
sleep 0.2
xli -geometry +1187+462 -delay 5 -goto /root/.pwidgets/misc/scaledimages/01.png /root/.pwidgets/misc/scaledimages/*.png &

I should have been clearer. I am running live in RAM and deleted my ~/.pwidgets dir before installing 1.9-10.

Cheers
