Unable to change window position about dash HOT 9 OPEN

that should work... that's primarily how I run dash

I haven't done it though the run script tho, I'll look into that

this is with starting dash on boot?

from dash.

you can also try putting this in your dash config file
~/.config/openDsh/dash.conf

[Window]
pos=@Point(0 50)
size=@Size(1120 480)

from dash.

Thanks for your reply. I did some tests. On rasp Debian 10 and 11 the [Window] field is working fine. On the contrary On debian 12 it is working fine. To get it working I had to disable Wayland and reactivate x11 by means of raspi-config. Might you do some tests in order to confirm what we discovered?Do I have to disable the on board bluetooth when I use the USB bluetooth dongle? Thanks

hmm weird... dont think i have a wayland setup but will see what it takes to properly validate that

i think you should be fine leaving the on-board one running (at least in terms of the pi interfacing with both of them) cant guarantee it wont cause any issues wireless AA tho (but also not saying it will)

Hi, Digging into the problem of not moving window into a Wayland environment, I found this in the Qt Docs under the function:

bool QWindow::startSystemMove()

"Furthermore, on some platforms such as Wayland, setPosition is not supported, so this is the only way the application can influence its position."

https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qwindow.html#startSystemMove

Could u provide me a quick fix to the dash.cpp calling this function? It is enough to call window.startSystemMove(); at row 50 of dash.cpp?
I'm making some tests on the "bookworm" debian 12 distro with a raspberry pi 4.

Let me know. Thanks in advance

from dash.

so reading up on it a bit, it might not be possible on wayland

"Wayland does not allow applications the ability to move their windows themselves" - quoting some person on reddit lol

It's ok, thanks. The last thing, and then u can close this issues, how i can change icon of widget Page? I loaded Apple car play app , and i Need to change icon, and change text, or make disappared the black line. What kind of SVG i must put in icons folder?

from dash.

if you wanted to override that icon (it looks like youre using the app launcher there?) the easiest is to probably replace this icon
https://github.com/openDsh/dash/blob/develop/assets/icons/widgets.svg

then you just need to rebuild and not worry about updating files anywhere in the code

"make the black line dissapear" you mean hide the thing that says "App" and the cog icon?

from dash.

I tried as you say, I replaced the widgets icon (24x24 svg) and then recompiled, but as you can see there is only one square. then I replaced my icon with the original one, and the square remained, I noticed that only by recompiling a couple of times, the original icon reappeared. I'll do some tests again and then I'll tell you. then I intended to make the top bar with the app text and the gear icon disappear. (like the android auto page).
