This did it for me, thanks. Now it shows "Lucid Puppy 5.2.5". Not how it was originally like, but i'm happy with it!jpeps wrote:

Picture frame
Would be great if there is a picture frame widget..... (or is it possible to customize the size of frame of the slideshow widget, like to show portraits ?)
weather station
On weather station it reads "to - morrow := " i am assuming it should be "tomorrow" I was able to see this in two machines.
Anyone? I'm using a Toshiba Tecra laptop and it won't show my drives...it will show Puppy space fine, and it shows "Drive Space" but no drives show up underneath it...any ideas?steve_s wrote:Ugh, ok, I give up: how do I get Drive Space to kick and show me my drive spaces? I've got pwidgets running on Puppy 52. right now it shows that drive space is one of the widgets I selected (Space_drives) but it doesn't list even my home drive. What am I missing?

Space_drives
Drive_space
Did have to apply several times and had Space_Puppy_Filesystem selected on and off. So may have tripped it to work.

I don't know Conky very well, so I can't explain the output not related to my pwidgets code.
Pwidgets uses the conky config files to include specific options for Pwidgets. Conky does not use these, but still output an error. I have never seen that this has lead to any kind of trouble.

Pwidgets 2.3.6 -> plugins -> clock analog
When I select a new clock face and select apply
The selection window stays open
Have to select X in top right to close window.
If select cancel clock face disappears on desktop.

cpu_temp
ext4 frugal-install to USB flash drive Lucid 5.28 with Pwidgets 2.3.7:
Temp_cpu displays cpu temperature, but fan always shows "On" regardless of cpu temperature. What can I do? Puppy Google Search hasn't come up with anything that works for me.

Hi ziggy,
I just loaded pwidgets after a long time away. I'm using Puppy 5.2.9
There appears to be a couple of issues with my install.
Extra menu items:-
Under 'File' there's two 'Saves' and two 'Preferences' entries
Using 'Stop' to close the pwidgets , it will then not restart no matter what I do.
Theme keeps changing back to default if pwidgets window opened and nothing done.
After all this time you would think I would know how to fix them

A suggestion
Great job zigbert. Pwidgets gives my desktop a 'professional' look
I have a suggestion. Can we use gtkdialog3 instead of conky to draw widgets? The advantage will be that widgets will be able to respond to mouse.
A window can be pasted to the desktop using this:
To simulate transparency, a portion of the wallpaper can be placed behind the window using a custom gtkrc file:
The only challenge may be how to crop background image to the right size. There's a tool called ImageMagick but that's too large to suit puppy.

<window type-hint="7">

<text><label>This window can behave like a</label></text>
<text><label>WIDGET</label></text>

Code: Select all

{
engine "pixmap"
{
image
{
function = FLAT_BOX
file = "background.png"
border = {0, 0, 0, 0}
detail = "base"
stretch = FALSE

some minor problems with Pwidgets-2.3.7
G'day zigbert,
Just a few things that are not quite right for me with the latest Pwidgets:
1) Edit>File>Show widget config file(s) is mis-typed as a second "Preferences" line in the Menu
2) Cpu_bar fails when added to the displayed widgets - the lines after "TEXT" disappear from the config file although the lines are there initially. I fix this by adding lines from an earlier Pwidgets to the Cpu_bar config file - I also add the RAM status to the bar display:
TEXT
${color0}R A M ${color5}${membar 10,110}
${color0}CPU 1 ${color3} ${cpubar cpu1 10,105}
${color0}CPU 2 ${color6} ${cpubar cpu2 10,105}
Although, more logically, the RAM could be included into the Space_Puppy_filesystem widget?
3) Weather widget - setting up my home location is OK but the dialog box could include a "Finished" or "Done" or "Close" button once the new location has been applied. The box just sits there until I close it by hitting the top right "X".
4) Weather widget - I get "A" with an accent above it between the temperature and the "C" for Celsius. Earlier Pwidgets were OK giving me the small superscript "o".

JWM has been the bottleneck to get this going - until you come up with <window type-hint="7">. Where does that comes from? I could not find it in the gtk documentation. Are there more? Sure it is
When it comes to transparency, I don't see the the immediate solution. But the forum is full of knowledge, and we can be rather sure that our posts will be read by the Puppy mainbrains. - Help is often near. Also, I don't see transparency as the most important.
Well, let's get to the point. - The latest Pwidgets actually supports gtkdialog widgets. But because of the lack of <window type-hint="7">, I solved it with a JWM-class to make the widget sticky and at layer 1. You'll find an example-widget in /usr/local/pwidgets/widgets/config_EXPREMENTAL. Move the Search_files config file to /usr/local/pwidgets/widgets/config, and you can test it. The actual gtkdialog code is in /usr/local/pwidgets/widgets/scripts/Search_files.
I am not the one who have made our widgets. I have only built the framework, and made some example-widgets. My time is limited, and I have already too many ongoing projects..... BUT, if some makes new widgets or other fixes/improvements, I will of course put it all together in a new pack. I will maintain the framework!
Good luck
Sigmund
