• You can post multiple times.
• Linking your config is very welcome. Use direct commit links if possible to preserve the point in history (press y when looking at a file or folder on GitHub to convert the URL).

I have sfwbar at the top, which is set up to show the current window title. Window borders are set to have very slight rounding. Also, unfocused windows have a slightly lower opacity.

[tomysurya]

hey can you share your sfwbar config? thanks!

@tomysurya
Sure, here you go:
sfwbar.config.txt

[tomysurya]

To celebrate the newly added rounded corners.

Real niri development on the main monitor:

Some notes:

• Bar: Waybar
• Font: Iosevka Term Medium
• Workspace-relative gradient borders are quite good for this wallpaper due to a bright spot in the top-right

real glxgears!! none of that eglgears_wayland!!

config at github:sodiboo/nix-config#fa49f90 but watch out for the build error (nom output in screenshot is dependent on the system not building; actually just set the wallpaper to firewatch-wide for the active config)

Conf

Thinner vertical waybar, rounded corners and global theme switching, even applied to Neovim!

Without the delay of some GTK apps, the theme switching animation would be perfect yet I don't want to delay the whole animation to wait for them

[YaLTeR]

Oh, that's quite nice! How do you get nvim to change colorscheme?

[vollowx]

Oh, that's quite nice! How do you get nvim to change colorscheme?

By several scripts: setbg, setcolor and some config in Neovim. The setbg corresponds to the background option in Neovim, while setcolor corresponds to :colorscheme .... Furthermore, you also need to modify the GTK themes that will be applied to adopt these script.

Basically copied from Bekaboo/dot and Bekaboo/nvim

[YaLTeR]

Thanks, this is what I've been looking for:

nvim --clean --headless --server "$sock" --remote-send "<Cmd>if &bg !=# '$1' | let g:script_set_bg=1 | set bg=$1 | unlet g:script_set_bg | endif<CR>" +'qa!' 2>/dev/null

[vollowx]

Yep, that's enough for the basic functionality

[alphanhp]

could I get the name of manuscrpit pages pdf viewer?

[Suyashtnt]

A) That isn't a PDF
B) That apps Obsidian, more specifically the manuscript-looking thing is excalidraw embedded into it

update since I updated main post: I had a screenshot that showed Obsidian with an excalidraw handwritten drawing. I no longer do

[exoess]

I love niri :3
