[niri] waybar - mostly hidden (lemmy.ml)

This is the most minimal functional aesthetically pleasing waybar config i could come up with. It mostly stays hidden until i need to call it using a custom keybind.

Any suggestions to make it better appreciated!

Thats a nice color pallet.

[-] nul9o9@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago

For sure could always use an alternative to Gruvbox or catppucin.

How did you make the rounded corners close to "mac-os" style? Is it an option in Niri?

[-] variety4me@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago

plain ole css, border-radius

.modules-right {
	background: @background-alpha;
	border: solid 1px @foreground;
	border-radius:25px;
	padding:0 20px;
}

did you mean rounded corner of windows? thats niri, in config.kdl

window-rule {
   geometry-corner-radius 8
   clip-to-geometry true
}
[-] garret@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yes, I was meaning on Niri. Still have to try out Niri. It is nice that seems to recreate the rounded corners as on MacOS.

Are you using the mpris2 plugin for deadbeef?

[-] variety4me@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago

yes

Would you be willing to share your configs for niri and waybar? I'm new to Linux and trying to learn how to set stuff up like this. Looks amazing thanks for sharing

How is Niri? I saw PikaOS has a option for it so I was thinking of giving it a shot. Only ever used Cinnamon and KDE, so I'd like to try a tiling manager for a change.

[-] variety4me@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 weeks ago

its a different workflow, takes a bit to get used to. Since you use KDE look up karousel plugin, you could test out the scrolling work flow in KDE and then install Niri if you like it

[-] jaxxed@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 weeks ago

If you use KDE & karousel, then Niri is the same, except it works
