Too late, already found an xli.pet from petch.
The configs run on my desktop if I run them thru conky in a console.
This is with pwidgets in console trying to start battery:
No more xli message!

Been having a play, but can't seem to get analgue clock to work at all. I can't see a config file for it. Same result in Icewm or Jwm.

Yes, I can't get the Analog Clock to display either, although Conky leaves the correct amount of space where it should be. No amount of desktop clicking brings it up either.01micko wrote: Been having a play, but can't seem to get analgue clock to work at all. I can't see a config file for it. Same result in Icewm or Jwm.
so far, though, it is looking JUST GREAT! Thank you, Sigmund. Probably Beta standard already IMHO - the simulated transparent background even updates properly, albeit slowly, even when original is stretched!
Is there any way to remove just one widget from the list, or is that a conky limitation?
Configure button doesn't appear to work for me - does that function for only selected widgets or is it for all widgets?

a couple of silly questions
it is safe to use on Puppy 3.01?
amount of RAM needed for pwidget and concky is little or can bust many MB of RAM?

Btw, thankyou Zigbert for this cool tool.
Ok, been playing some more, tried to setup pwidgets simply with, "puppy linux", "analog clock" and "calender" in the right hand column. Hit apply,sure enough I had "PuppyLinux 4.10" at the top, a space where analog clock should go, then the calender.
I ran "fixwidgets" in a console and here is what happenned,
these shots overlap, you can see. Hope this sheds some light.

It should run fine on Puppy 3.01, but as Sigmund says it's not tested there yet.Dingo wrote:a couple of silly questions

The beauty of Pwidgets is that it is small ... very, VERY small.
Hope that helps

Hello,
Yes, it works great on 3.01....
@zigbert,
Dude, this is great..I love the easy configuration, just like Conkey.
One question, how to get it to write to the root desktop?? (Personal reasons)..
This is a winner, the choir sings on....

No analog clock
Pwidgets package did not include the xonclock executable. I have uploaded it again. Download from main post.

The config button opens geany with the widgets config file(s). Maybe it would be better to rename button to 'Edit config file'.
There is no configs for the analog clock. But you can change the clock by setting another skin. The file is /root/.pwidgets/configs/Clock-analog.png

Works like a treat! Thanks again Zigbert, it may only be eye candy but it will sell Puppy to the masses!

Hey micko, Like your desktop, I noticed you have 2 shortcuts with ".desktop" attached to the icon name, To get rid of that, Just right click on the icon and select "Edit item" then delete or rename it01micko wrote:

Done and done! Thanks. But the real accolades go to Zigbert (and of course yourself ) for my desktop. And also must mention Hairy Will, WhoDo and disciple.Hey micko, Like your desktop, I noticed you have 2 shortcuts with ".desktop" attached to the icon name, To get rid of that, Just right click on the icon and select "Edit item" then delete or rename it Smile

No, I did nothing. Didn't even notice! lol. Was so wrapped up in analog clock that all else blew by!Have you configured the fonts for Pwidgets? It uses 'monotone' as default. With this font spacing in calender will be correct, and alignments of the different widgets becomes correct.
Could it be that my package didn't install the font correct?
If you look at your first screenshot in this thread, everything is ok.
/usr/share/fonts/default/TTF/MONOFONT.TTF is the one you need.
Something must have gone wild during your second install of Pwidgets.
You can either try to install another time, or just copy this font from the pet package.
If you rename pwidgets-0.1.pet to pwidgets-0.1.pet.tar.gz you can just click on it and xarchive will open it.
With the best widget greetings

Bonjour,
Very nice tool indeed.
But calender is a bit bizarre. The first week is only six days. And the 1st is thursday when the 2nd is sunday.
What did I do wrong?
Version 4.11.
Cordialement
