Hi Geoffrey,

Hi stu90,

I was looking at the code I couldn't see where I could make the buttons text only.
In Xdialog --buttons-style "text" is used but that command don't work, could you give me a link
to where I can view that info, I'd like to try my hand at yad.

I've also tried your google image search but it don't seem to read the screen res, most likely something different in Quirky 120 NOP

xwininfo -root |grep Width|cut -d: -f2

Nice compact utility.

You can use puppy's xwininfo like this-

Code: Select all

xwininfo -root |grep Width|cut -d: -f2

to get screen resolution.

Cheers,

having chosen the colors and forgot to name it ?
Or gave a name including blank ?

No problem

Code: Select all

VERSION=" v 0.3 "
#Do not loose chosen colors if Name is blank
#change blank to underscore in Name

My regards

PS: next step could be changing an existing theme

tested on wary512
which may run as unprivileged user fido.

Code: Select all

# root password for user fido 
 [ "`whoami`" != "root" ] && exec sudo -A ${0} ${@} 

inserted at line 8 will let it work in all waries.

Without this the output is not true.

Code: Select all

# ./simplegtk
Exiting
mkdir: can't create directory '/usr/share/themes/wau_wau/': Permission denied
touch: cannot touch `/usr/share/themes/wau_wau/gtk-2.0/gtkrc': No such file or directory
/root/my-applications/bin/simplegtk: line 72: /usr/share/themes/wau_wau/gtk-2.0/gtkrc: No such file or directory
New wau_wau theme created

Don't know whether this is worth a new version
but anyway it is worth a note in the title

My regards

I just tried you new version 0.4, when I click remove I get this when run in terminal, I'm running it in quirky 120 NOP, It does create a theme ok

Code: Select all

# simplegtk
yad: symbol lookup error: yad: undefined symbol: g_malloc0_n
cancel pressed exiting

Geoffrey wrote:stu90,

I just downloaded v 0.5 when I run it, it say's that it is v 0.4 and still the same error when remove is clicked.

edit yeah using yad-0.12.4

./configure 
 make 
 new2dir make install

stu90 wrote: To be honest i don't know what to suggest regarding this error you are getting Geoffrey - i have uninstalled and reinstalled .pet and am still unable to reproduce it on lucid puppy ( i don't have any quirky or wary installs )

Maybe an idea to try compiling Yad on your quirky 120 NOP install as i compile it here on Lucid puppy
http://code.google.com/p/yad/downloads/ ... 2.4.tar.xz

Code: Select all

./configure 
 make 
 new2dir make install

I prefer simplegtk - quite useful and gives expected results (highlight on tabs would be nice but once you start adding features..)

bg - great (at last relief from rox-filer window 'snow-blinding' or getting lost in too-dark gtks)

highlight - love buttons&etc that prelight on hover

select - automatically does contrasting text

text - if you get color/value just right, it works well with bg/highlight for medium values

it's almost like a return to 'classic' gtk1

works fine on my q142 (anticipate no issues on other puplets like warys)
