I made a user script that strips down Google Calendar into a minimal view so that you can display it in sidebars and desktop widgets.

I recently switched from Code Saver to my own Iosevka configuration, and at first I found it to look great in Neovide (a Neovim GUI) but too narrow in my terminal, especially with FFmpeg output. I thought maybe it was due to font rendering differences, like spacing or character widths. But then I took a screenshot with the font sizes set the same in both apps, and overlaid a word in one app to another ... and the text is rendered the same.

FFmpeg output for reference:

[Plasma] To demonstrate the power of Flex Tape…

I sawed this panel in half!

I've never seen anyone do this. It seemed like a good idea & it was. It's very nice. It's not very fancy besides the split bottom panel & the status bar on the left. I'm using Smart Video Wallpaper Reborn for the wallpaper & the Plasma style, application style, & window decorations are Oxygen. The audio visualizer on the right bottom panel is Panon. The comic is Freefall by Mark Stanley.

Sorry if I formatted this badly, I'm using Mastodon & I've never made a Lemmy post.

Fairly basic, but very usable and feels a lot better than windows. Feels like the fake sleek modern/futuristic ui they show in tv shows. What music visualizers do you guys like? I enjoy cavalier, miss wallpaper engine, but Hidamari is decent.

Guys please give a star on my github 👉 dots

XFCE note: autohide panel (the clock is not), accessibility WM tweaks turned on (hide title...) as I usually have a window maximized. Raise-on-focus (Window Manager settings, similar setting in tweaks for window cycling) turned off, allowing rolled-up windows to not disappear when unfocused.

System note: ~~I have not maintained it well, broken dependencies right now and have finally got bit by nVidia as my system won't properly wake from suspend. Getting an alternative GPU is somewhat of a mess, especially prices and getting full performance.~~ EDIT: Updated, working fine now

I made this ultra-minimalist window theme a while ago (this is the second version, with the widget-capable layout and style-based color accent) and have been using it.

The title is 12px tall (the buttons are default 8px, though can get taller with alternate hover/click states).

At this size, XFWM has a design issue with font sizes/baselines so most fonts are cut off (the selected font is Nimbus Mono PS Bold 10, larger has text descenders cut because text can't overlap window contents)

I would try to take this idea further (and fix some of XFWM's other relevant issues) with my own WM but I use a somewhat niche language and couldn't figure out how to render a rectangle the last time I looked into it (the WM I was looking at doesn't have titles/window controls).

Not set on a name as lots of themes have size-based names but are not as minimal.

Loving this "frosted glass" effect...

WM: dwm White iPod: That's rockbox's UI simulator. Red iPod: Is just a dzen window with two lines

Been messing with it after midnight. Turned out ok, I guess. Dzen is fun to mess with, but I don't know if I want to use it as a statusbar and/or notification daemon.

The only thing I wish to know, is how the hell do I move a dzen popup, I tried wmctrl but that didn't work.

soooooooooo... links to the applications from the screenshot (I made them myself :3):

catgameGTK: tamagochi on Python3 with PyGObject

pynotes: cool notes widget (PyGObject)

pyclock: analog clock widget (PyGObject and Cairo)
