What does your desktop look like?
Re: What does your desktop look like?
I think you both are overextending ABIT , painting flames and changing rims on your $500 pickup truck is tasteless and lame, while small gaps aren't
Also i am not using i3 only to save space, but to have the windows position nicely automaticly.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
i wonder what i3's main developers would have to say about that.
for many years they have been developing a window manager extremely high in functionality, and extremely low in looks...
here the i3-gaps maintainer says:

here the i3-gaps maintainer says:
As it stands, gaps is completely out of the question anyway because they break window decorations, which is a big no-no.
However, even if that were to be fixed, gaps violate the idea behind i3 which is maximizing screen space. Gaps will stay a fork, most likely forever.
On a side note it should be mentioned that the way gaps are implemented is really more of a hack. Yes, it works fine (mostly), but that's still another compelling argument against merging it.

And i care what developers think about it ? are you 15 years old ? if i want gaps i will use gaps, simple.debiman wrote:i wonder what i3's main developers would have to say about that.

I use Linux because i can customize it how i want, and not use everything the developers way.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
This thread is for showing desktops, not discussions about them. If you need to discuss it,
http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=136328
is a better thread for that.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
bspwm is great for gaps, they can even be configured on-the-fly:
See https://suckless.org/rocks for a list of applications that behave "correctly" in respect of window management

There is no "golden ratio issue" with dwm — most tiling wm users do not want to run programs that require a specific aspect ratio for their GUI.oswaldkelso wrote:Getting rid of the infamous golden ration issues of the likes of dwm. No more squashing xclock in to an oval.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
But sxhkd is the best keybinding program ever, why did that not work?pawRoot wrote:i couldn't configure my keybinds same as on i3, for example Win+R to resize, Win+left arrow to move the window etc...

EDIT: you also need xdo to move the windows
Also, if you're going to chat here please post some scrots as well because people come here expecting eye-candy rather than walls of text...

Re: What does your desktop look like?
What a struggle. I gave up on the thumbnail. here's my desktop.
Edited to add: This is Debian with Openbox. The Conky is my own configuration which has evolved over several years. On the left is Tint2 chopped and adapted from a configuration I found on the net. Of course, the background is from Antix because I like the picture, at least for now.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
This is Stretch on my laptop. I'm still using Kubuntu on my desktop, but hoping to get that moved over to Debian when I have time.
Re: What does your desktop look like?
Thanks. It works. I do this so rarely that whichever hosting site I was using last time has morphed or evaporated.stevepusser wrote:Pretty easy to get a thumbnail from postimg...
I found the ghost in my Tint2 which showed in my previous post. The transparency is complete now.
