Of course, the thread is: https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=72618

Just in post number 2 where @Jerry3904 said: "For many windows, you can right-click the titlebar > Layer > and choose the level of "topness" you want."

That is the trick I used to place conky over the top of the active windows.

So basically, that's a running conky that sits on top of app finder because of the layer selected?

Right, as you can see there is nothing fancy.

It's still interesting. +1

The work on the whisker-like-rofi-menu in progress...

Hi,

As an observer the recent Rofi work has been fascinating! Excellent work and deployment by all!

OK, this is a bit different. Tim fixed the xkcd in mxfb-goodies.

Just in case Fifa decides to allow Linux distros to compete in the next World Cup...

Ha! I see multiple offsides already ...

Yet another rofi-related screenshot - and then it'll stop, I promise...

Three rofis running simultanuously (but of course not showing at the same time, don't let this composed screenshot fool you), each initiated from an alternative configuration file. The specific rofi-theme and settings are likewise set in such designated config files :
--> iconic menu : started from a 'mx-comfort-dark' tint2 button (rofi exec command pointing to ~/.config/rofi/config-iconic.rasi file)
--> run box : started from keybind e.g. [shift]+F1 (rofi exec command pointing to ~/.config/rofi/config-run.rasi file)

Any other rofi theme can be started from the default keybind, and using the standard ~/.config/rofi/config.rasi settings. None shown in this screenshot, obviously.

Needless to say that mx-rofi-manager doesn't access the alternative config-iconic and/or config-run files. These need to be set manually.

I like it, and I like seeing people play with this tool!
