lain VS Orchis-theme

Welcome to AW! A few points that may come in handy. * Read awesome-git API documentation first. There are a lot of points about it. * Do not use io.popen https://awesomewm.org/apidoc/libraries/awful.spawn.html * Encapsulate business logic to user custom library and re-use code for your widgets. Remove it from rc.lua. * You can use producer-consumer pattern to create signals and add graphical widget listeners to it. https://github.com/raven2cz/awesomewm-config/blob/master/fishlive/status/archupdates.lua https://github.com/raven2cz/awesomewm-config/blob/master/themes/multicolor/theme.lua * nvidia: nvidia-smi --query-gpu=temperature.gpu --format=csv,noheader,nounits * Other basics mem, net, etc. looks here, sometimes is better to use library: https://github.com/lcpz/lain/tree/master/widget * optional: try to divide GUI graphical components (theme parts, and your custom libs) and business logic layer (rc.lua). After a few months, you won't know why and where you implemented it, and you need to keep it in order. Especially the initialization order of the components. Lua requires a strictly sequential order.

I'm quite confused how to implement the password function for lain imap widget (https://github.com/lcpz/lain/wiki/imap) - using pass (author recommends spm or pass) gpg (and not plain text).

Probably you're using some widgets made by someone else. I see you have a require "lain" in your rc so it's safe to assume you're using lain's widgets, found here: https://github.com/lcpz/lain I'm not familiar with them and currently I am not at the PC but in this file in the repo: https://github.com/lcpz/lain/blob/master/widget/bat.lua You can find this piece of code: bat_notification_critical_preset = { title = "Battery exhausted", text = "Shutdown imminent", timeout = 15, fg = "#000000", bg = "#FFFFFF" } Check out how it works and maybe add your own presets. Good luck.

You can read more in their wiki : https://github.com/lcpz/lain/wiki/bat

Go through their Readme. https://github.com/vinceliuice/Orchis-theme They explain pretty well how to apply the theme.

I am installing the Orchis theme from https://github.com/vinceliuice/Orchis-theme.

This theme? https://github.com/vinceliuice/Orchis-theme/issues/286

yeah, its gnome using Orchis Theme and Aylur's Widgets

Firstly, i was using the Orchis Gnome theme, a few days ago, and i didn't like the fact that there was no light mode, so i deleted said GTK theme manually, by deleting it from the .themes folder, both in my local usr, and the Admin usr , and the shared usr folder as well, However, as you can see in this pic (https://imgur.com/a/VHtDLDP). I also followed this guide to unninstall Orchis once and for all-.

The Orchis theme then switching it over in tweaks

How did you install it? Check the install.sh, there's a separate flag for Libadwaita support.

I highly recommend Orchis theme
