|
|
Creates a thin wibox at a position relative to another wibox.
|
|
|
|
This allows to create "borders" for your wiboxes.
|
|
|
|
lain.widget.borderbox(relbox, s, args)
|
|
|
|
`relbox` and `s` (an integer being screen number) are required arguments, `args` is an optional table
|
|
which can contain:
|
|
|
|
Variable | Meaning | Type | Default
|
|
--- | --- | --- | ---
|
|
`position` | Position of the additional box | string | "above"
|
|
`color` | Color of the additional box | string | `#FFFFFF`
|
|
`size` | Size in pixels of the additional box | int | 1
|
|
|
|
Possible values for `.position`: `top`, `bottom`, `left` and `right`.
|
|
|
|
### Example usage
|
|
|
|
Think of this as a wibox:
|
|
|
|
[======================]
|
|
|
|
If `args.position = "above"`, then you'll get an additional wibox below
|
|
the existing one:
|
|
|
|
________________________
|
|
[======================]
|
|
|
|
It'll match position and size of the existing wibox.
|
|
|
|
If your main wiboxes are stored in a table called `mywibox` (one wibox
|
|
for each screen) and are located at the bottom of your screen, then this
|
|
adds a borderbox on top of them:
|
|
|
|
-- Layout section
|
|
for s = 1, screen.count() do
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
-- Most likely, you'll want to do this as well:
|
|
awful.screen.padding(screen[s], "bottom")
|
|
|
|
-- Create the box and place it above the existing box.
|
|
lain.widgets.borderbox(mywibox[s], s )
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
end |
