I am on vacation and typing this on a blackberry. Please try -dBorder: 0 to remove border and -dTitlemenu: 0 or -dTitle: 0 to remove title on startmenu bar. I am curious. Tq

I will sure add this to Pwidgets when slideshow is complete. - This is Great 8) .
I'm sorry for not helping at the moment. My focus is pointed elsewhere.

- I would prefer borders around the picture, so maybe an option...
- For Pwidgets the default horizontal position (X) will differ depending on the screen resolution, and if the widgets are placed to the right of the screen. We need to define this x-point.

Code: Select all

xrandr -q | grep '*' | egrep "[0-9]+[ ]*x[ ]*[0-9]+" -o | cut -d "x" -f 1
This returns screen width.

Hi trio
Here is a shot in icewm with those options. The border is gone.
Have a good trip.

Cheers

Sigmund,
Very nice. I've been thinking and thinking and all along (I assume) you've known. You must be a teacher. Because as a student I have learnt so much! Still only know 2 characters out of Samuel Morse' invention but my thinking has become more lateral.
I'm still trying! :wink:

@sigmund: how do you get the nice border? a jpg image that you render by xli under the slideshow?

@micko: I have been experimenting, I think I was right that the window is truly controlled by the wm we used. -geometry is a common command that can be used as icewm command or xli command........or maybe we should wait for the "teacher" to enlighten us? please delete all my icewm command and you put them in the xli command, nothing will happen ............ :wink:

Teacher speaking :D

The fact is that; while I work with different things, the only education I got is as a teacher :) , which I don't practice. - Well, just a bit on this forum :D

Now when you have worked so much with this code, you will learn a lot just looking at how I put it all together. Michaels code is the base of all my work. You'll recognize much of his code in /usr/local/pwidgets/func.

There is room for improvements, so go ahead.....
