Re

Many tanks work great with audacious

Now all I have to do is rack my brains to get it to work with Spotify.

Thanks again.

Edit

Have it for spotify , just ad MediaPlayer2.spotify in active-player.list .

Many tanks .

^ It looks great.

Dark lines can be a problem because part of the text will be invisible if the background (wallpaper) is also dark.

In the file show-lyric.ini you have a color scheme (DARKEST LINE, LESS DARK LINE, HIGHLIGHTED LINE) and you can easily adapt it to any background if necessary.

If you want, you can also change the font in the same place (instead of Ubuntu).

Great job!

^Thanks to you, I found a Conky to play with. This works quite well on 'carbon'.

Hello

Continuing to play with Tahoe, here is a weather conky that uses a floating bar. This bar moves and enlarges depending on temperatures between -15 and +40 °C.

^ Maybe it's better to make an execbar for precipitation when you already have percentages (IMO).

I thought about it, but don't you think it might be a bit much in the conky?

^ Honestly, I've never seen an execbar in weather conky.

I know you're playing around and trying to add something new, but I don't know if it's a good idea.
Anyway, I support your creativity.

Hello

first try , done this

^ Ah, you didn't understand me.
I didn't mean to add both (precipitation + temperature).

Precipitation is already in percentages and it is easy to make an execbar.
The bar showing the Low/High temperature is not clear to me and I don't know what the orange part is.

I assume that it is the absolute value of the difference between the highest and the lowest temperature?

Visually (as an effect) it looks good in conky.

Hello

Oki-doki .

The bar indicates the temperature range between the low and high. It moves between -15 on the far left and +40 ( temp for me in Sarreguemines )on the far right.

Here the script (well, it's a script i wrote with my limited knowledge. Just ask Gemini to correct any errors. )
for the moment it work.

^ Yes.

My assumption was pretty accurate.
I'm not familiar enough with the code because I haven't tried anything similar.

Anyway, like I said, it looks pretty good in conky.

^^I'm sorry my friend, I've become lazy and haven't tested anything yet.
In addition, I only have in sid 'hyprland', 'labwc', 'wayfire' and a broken 'xfce' installation as desktops.
They're all not very conky-friendly...

^An attempt.
It works well with all three.

I still have to find one with text.lua. As usual, there is a lot of chaos in my archives.

Edit: That is also correct.

Edit2: Your “bar” is also ok.
