mod_dock: width of the *dock* area

[chertyhansky]

I'm using mod_dock and conky, placed to the dock. But the dock width is always 64px, and not depend on the width of conky window. Is it possible to add parameter for dock size to cfg_dock.lua, or any other way to change it?

[rabarbar42]

What does it look like? Does it display in vertical?

Yes, dock display in vertical. cfg_dock.lua is visible on the screenshot.
Now I'm just edited mod_dock/dock.c to set 430 px width (in a bottom frame, line 285). By default there was 64.

I'm also seeing this as a regression from notion3 to notion4 where notion3 seemed to size the dock appropriately.

Any ideas? Thanks!

[drheld]

Adding more details: I'm seeing the dock size 64 pixels wide regardless of how wide the dock actually is.

Not sure if there's a way to customize this if auto-detecting the size is problematic.

[wilhelmy]

I'm assuming it's hardcoded here: https://github.com/raboof/notion/blob/main/mod_dock/dock.c#L281

Seems the size policy code was added in 2007 and is not available under LGPL and thus can't be added verbatim to notion 4 but should rather be rewritten, given enough interest: https://github.com/raboof/notion/blob/notion3/mod_dock/dock.c#L938

[wilhelmy]

See below for the diff between notion4 and notion3 (non-lgpl) branch. Please don't copy this code into a pull request. Since the dock code seems more or less self-contained you might have luck running notion4 with the changes from notion3 dock.c applied locally. In this diff output, minus sign indicates notion4 and plus sign notion3.

[wilhelmy]

Actually, the file header for notion3 dock.c states LGPL 2.1+ license with original authorship by Tom Payne and Per Olofsson as main authors for mod_dock. I think this means we can use notion3 mod_dock in lgpl notion4?

[wilhelmy]

I've verified this, the updated ion3 LICENSE document I found in other places (such as https://github.com/jan0sch/Ion3/blob/master/LICENSE) states Unless otherwise indicated in components taken from elsewhere, this software is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License, version 2.1 ("LGPL", reproduced below), extended and modified with the following terms and all other files reference the LICENSE document for copyright terms. This means that mod_dock from ion3/notion3 can be legally imported into notion 4.

Any volunteers?
