  • Idle & Lock screen configuration in nwg-shell
    4 projects | /r/swaywm | 17 Jul 2022
    The latest nwg-shell-config update brings a new tab, to configure idle and lock screen settings. Under the hood, it provides the nwg-lock command, which is a wrapper around gtklock or swaylock. It adds a random image background, either local, or downloaded from https://unsplash.com. You may also display an overlay window to control mpris media player with playerctl.

    You can still adjust gtklock to your liking, by defining your own config and css. See https://github.com/jovanlanik/gtklock/wiki
