  "Preferences" showing in Appfinder
Posted by: phirephoto - 10-18-2018, 05:32 PM - Forum: Other - No Replies

So in the AppFinder, if I type "Terminal", two Xfce Terminal options show. Hovering over both of them, they both say Terminal Emulator. However one brings up the Properties for terminal. How do I prevent this? Sometimes the one on top is the terminal, sometimes the one on top is properties. I'd rather only see the Terminal Emulator one. Thanks

  No display on HDMI out

So not sure if this is the right category, but I have HP laptop, AMD GPU, AMD CPU, HP 17-ak001ds . I've connected my TV to the HDMI out on the laptop, but can't get LL to recognize it.

  Putty fonts different from terminal
Posted by: phirephoto - 10-17-2018, 11:23 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (5)

Maybe I'm not searching on the right keywords... Searched and can't find an answer. Is there a way to make the prompt identical when I'm SSH'd to my LinuxLite box from a Windows machine via Putty identical to the prompt I see when I'm at the console?

See attached for what I see when I'm local vs via Putty:
http://www.espphotography.com/putty.jpg is what I see via putty
http://www.espphotography.com/local.jpg is what I see locally.

  Libreoffice menus not integrated properly
Posted by: quadransmural - 10-17-2018, 05:02 PM - Forum: Other - No Replies

Hello,

I have 1366x768 display. Having installed Linux Lite 4 I have noticed that in Libreoffice the menus overlap and obscure other menu titles. This isn't unique to Linux Lite but some distros seem to have overcome this problem.

Is there a solution?

Thx for any ideas.

  Who wants to write a basic About box for Linux Lite?
Posted by: valtam - 10-16-2018, 08:06 PM - Forum: Linux Lite Software Development - Replies (57)

I'm thinking in Series 5.x of having a replacement for llver.

When you type in llver, a simple dialogue box will appear with some basic information about Linux Lite. Think 'winver' in Windows.

[Image: winver-windows-10.jpg]

A linux example:

[Image: yad40-about.jpg]

The yad box is about perfect as an example of layout, information etc.

Our About box needs to have:

- Latest version of Linux Lite
- License (GPLv2) button
- Close button
- Credits button
- Linux Lite logo
- Linux to our website
- Copyright 2012 - 2018

You can write this in any language you like. I would suggest Python, but it's up to you. The finished product needs to be one, executable file. eg. llver.py

Happy hacking!

  Uninstall option under menu rightclick
Posted by: MS - 10-16-2018, 12:10 PM - Forum: Suggestions and Feedback - Replies (3)

Hi,

perhaps this is due to myself emerging from WindowsOS environment, but I do miss an option to issue uninstalling of a program from rightlicking it in the desktopbar menu, then selecting an uninstall. This option could match the "purge" function on the selected program, perhaps.
