what is a container?

[hearty quarry]

you can essentially split all ur cookies and cache and stuff in the same browser between multiple containers

like I can use a personal container and sign in one gmail acc

on the other work container a different one

try it from the right click on the workspace indicator

it'll show a select default container option

[tidal whale]

so I am assuming I have set my "test" workspace as a personal container?

[placid ember]

yes, it's like you now have two browser

[tidal whale]

like using different profiles?

[placid ember]

yes

[tidal whale]

so I am assuming, essentials and pinned tabs do not share?

nvm essentials do share

as its a workspace

[placid ember]

you can have essentials for each container (i use it), pin tabs i don't know, i don't use it

[tidal whale]

is workspace & container the same thing?

[hearty quarry]

precisely

[hearty quarry]

not really in this case they might be

for those who don't have a default container set

like myself

it's just a way of seperating tabs

[tidal whale]

my work flow is just "open" more tabs. Never really optimized tab location.

[hearty quarry]

add containers and u go hypr mode

[placid ember]

no, workspace is like two windows but the same browser, container is like differents browser (cookies, etc... are in the container)

[hearty quarry]

lol

[tidal whale]

I guess it's never too late to start.

[placid ember]

you can be connect with one account in gmail in one container and be connected with another account in gmail in one other container for example

[hearty quarry]

also if iirc the firefox extension allows u to assign containers to certain websites too right ?

[tidal whale]

so back to the container indicator. It would be a visual indication on the tab, telling you that tab is inside a container. Instead of needing to look a the workspace colour?

[hearty quarry]

so like I can assign work websites to work and stuff and they'll open in that container right ?

[hearty quarry]

true

[tidal whale]

ok this making sense.

[hearty quarry]

look here i have multiple tabs on different containers

some on the yellow container , some on blue , others on green

[tidal whale]

how u setting mulitple containers within a single workspace?

[hearty quarry]

i don't use containers but i believe there's an extension that allows u to do that

for the image i just opened a few and then changed the container and shit .... basically sketchy stuff 😝

[placid ember]

you can and you can't
you can assign a favorite to a workspace and you can assign a workspace to a container.
so when you open you favorite, it'll open in the workspace which is in the container.
but assigning a favorite to a container without assigning to a workspace, i don't know

[hearty quarry]

and by using the extension ?

[placid ember]

idk, maybe

[hearty quarry]

sorry am not on my laptop rn can't check

[hearty quarry]

that's alr

sorry for the troubles

[tidal whale]

what are some examples you use containers for - Hokuto

[placid ember]

no worries 🙂

[placid ember]

examples : one container for personnal, and one container for job

and essentials in each containers (youtube and... in personnal container, meet, zoom, etc.... in job container)

[tidal whale]

is essentials only share across same container

[placid ember]

you can assign essentials to one container yes

[tidal whale]

ok thats making sense.

I guess I'll give it a try and mess with it.

I guess its a nice quality life feature.

[placid ember]

for example : my workspace/container used for job

[tidal whale]

meaning you can do the switch within a window, instead of being locked to a specific profile - referring to how chrome handles it

[hearty quarry]

btw , i noticed that it makes the clicked essentials the same colour as the containers

in ur case probably yellow

should I change it ?

[placid ember]

left is personnal workspace in personnal container, right is job wokspace/container

[placid ember]

yes : yellow for job, purple for personnal

[hearty quarry]

yeah so is that better or the previous one where the tab icon was used as background better ?

[tidal whale]

how you change the colour?

[placid ember]

sorry, i don't understand (english isn't my native language

[hearty quarry]

yeahh no problem

previously when u clicked on an essential

it made the background like the tab icon itself

like youtube had a red bg and stuff

now with containers it makes all of em have the same background on being clicked on

i'm just asking you guys which one's better

cause i don't use containers very much

it's wise to get feedback from thsoe who do use it

[placid ember]

for the color it's in options, General , activate containers and paraméters
you create containers the give a color and an icon

[placid ember]

yeah, it's a bug, i have the same issue
i posted here

[hearty quarry]

ohh ok ok

thanks for letting me know

[tidal whale]

anyone else?

[hearty quarry]

any other code ?

apart from lacuna

[tidal whale]

yes, but I haven't knowingly changes any css which would affect setting tabs

I'll do the best testing method

comment out imports until I find whats causing the issue

[hearty quarry]

that's the way to go

[hearty quarry]

nobody knowingly tries to bork their zen ... trust me

just comment the imports and restart the zen

[tidal whale]

I know it css tho, as works fine on default profile

[hearty quarry]

ye obv it's the css

[tidal whale]

ok I fixed it, I just had to fix my content.css

[hearty quarry]

alrightt ... nice dude

[hearty igloo]

@hearty quarry What all am I supposed to move to chrome folder here? Also, does the js folder has JS init?

[still tiger]

damn mica on windows goes crazy

[hearty quarry]

it has a js script put it in the JS folder

haven't made it JS cause i want the users to interact

don't want random users placing random js anywhere

[hearty igloo]

Right. well that's Acrylic. 🙂

[hearty quarry]

the entire thing

or the lacuna folder

kinda like how u do with most ucl themes out there like natsumi or nebula

[hearty igloo]

What does JS do?

Like what's the additional functionality?

[hearty quarry]

allows the sidebar to remain blurred in compact mode with transparent websites

essentially if u change the sidebar width the js syncs it up so that i can use the variable in css

alternatively u can skip the js and manually hardcode a sidebar width in lacuna-tabs.css like a caveman

[next spruce]

i love your gradient psuedo bg

it helps in blur better than normal single colroed sidebar bg

[hearty igloo]

Bro what nightmare is this! What did I do wrong?

[hearty quarry]

thanks dude

[hearty quarry]

good holy christ

i mean i expected people to have a darkish background

forgot these walppapers

shoot

imma just a config

for background colour

[hearty igloo]

Ferrocene might know a fix for this.

@next spruce Do you know how to fix this? ☝️

[hearty quarry]

i thought i tested all wallpapers

oh well

imma just add the config after my class ends

[hearty igloo]

[next spruce]

tried mixing nebula and this?

[hearty igloo]

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/scl/fi/a8d9e5p34jozomdrvu5ql/explorer_EMTnjNIplB.mp4?rlkey=wnjq0fdonp97ijqb170qbglqx&dl=0
Well, this looks

[hearty quarry]

sick

[hearty quarry]

lol

[next spruce]

it needs to go to hospital

[hearty quarry]

its banding

[hearty quarry]

real

[hearty igloo]

What?

I don't understand?

[next spruce]

they are missalligned

[hearty quarry]

ye

lol

@next spruce dude i had a bonkers of an idea

like coming up with as complicated a method as possible

[next spruce]

what is it abt

[hearty quarry]

for the black colour thing

just for jokes

[next spruce]

yep

[hearty quarry]

u'd have to enter the location of the wallpaper

then i'd use js

[next spruce]

yep

[hearty quarry]

to apply computation on the image

to find the theme colour

and then use that

as the background

see big brain

lmfao

[next spruce]

[hearty quarry]

even typing it makes me wanna cry

[hearty igloo]

Hmm, well @green stone needs to work on it then!

[next spruce]

i dont think real world works like that

[hearty quarry]

u need to work on it

u merged lacuna and nebula

[next spruce]

already worked

[hearty quarry]

he has optimized it for nebula

i have for lacuna

[next spruce]

nebula uses the same as mine i worked on mine means worked on nebula

[hearty igloo]

no, he is planning to introduce js in his theme

[hearty quarry]

he isn't even talking about js

[green stone]

already did

[green stone]

not sure

[green stone]

i might but i need suggestions of how it could be implimented

as much as i have seen the people who use nebula, i need to figure out how to explain this shit for v3

[next spruce]

wait for sine dev to make bash script

[green stone]

yeah ill wait till sine

[next spruce]

easy installing fx_autoconfig

[next spruce]

i am also waiting for it

[green stone]

ill make a seperate branch for it ig

for sine

[hearty quarry]

lol

[hearty quarry]

i was talking about ferrocene

he brought up a point of misalignment

[green stone]

oo

[hearty quarry]

which was due to him merging lacuna and nebula

[green stone]

oh i see

[next spruce]

did transition animation changed

for sidebar

[green stone]

seems same to me

[next spruce]

bruh left: -300px wont work anymore

[hearty quarry]

lol

[next spruce]

i need to figure out that for seemless transition

time to calc(var

[hearty quarry]

[green stone]

rip

does my code also has it?

[next spruce]

yea

i fixed it tho

left: calc((var(--zen-sidebar-width) - 0px) * -1) !important;

use this instead

[green stone]

oo

why does mine work fine without it

[next spruce]

r u using js?

[green stone]

no

[next spruce]

it will only break if u use js

[green stone]

ohh

makes sense

[next spruce]

cause for dynamic width u cant set specific value like -300px

[green stone]

ye

[hearty quarry]

if only css were a good guy and allowed us to apply blur over transparent bgs

wouldn't it be fun

[next spruce]

r u having isuues during transitions in enabiling and disabiling sidebar?

[hearty quarry]

specify please

i'll check when i get home

but what exactly should i check ?

[next spruce]

nah i am confirming myself first

[hearty quarry]

i did get the pseudobg appearing abruptly but that's cause i have no animation on that

[hearty quarry]

alr

np

[next spruce]

90% chance its my css fault

[hearty quarry]

lmfao

[hearty igloo]

Perhaps, you forgot about this?

[hearty igloo]

@hearty quarry Hey did you get it? I can only add js for sidebar if that back shadow is resolved.

[next spruce]

u will need to adjust bruh

i think u r using nebula

[hearty igloo]

No no, the one Lacuna has.

For sidebar.

[next spruce]

u want it from edge to edge?

like default zen has

[hearty igloo]

I am talking about how Lacuna theme has this nightmare.

[next spruce]

i can fix it but how u want it

like nebula has?

or default zen

position i am asking

[hearty igloo]

Like yours.

[hearty quarry]

Change the colour in lacuna-tabs.css

For the time being

Imma try and get a better method

[hearty igloo]

Color of everything or some specific element?

[hearty quarry]

Change the #eee in Lacuna compact css

[hearty igloo]

to what?

[hearty quarry]

To a colour most suited for your background

Use a colour picker or smth idk

Ye sorry for the trouble

I will be changing how it is currently

[hearty igloo]

np

[tidal whale]

Luckily I don’t use sidebar

I just use keybinding to toggle compact mode.

[quaint stag]

Need help removing the workspace name and icon. Tried multiple methods, nothing works. Any ideas?

TY

[tidal whale]

#css-mods message

I accidentally sent the message, rather than the link.

[quaint stag]

It's alright! Thanks though it worked.

[quaint stag]

How do i install JS for Lacuna Theme?

[hearty quarry]

Fx autoconfig

Oh ye gotta add steps in the readme

[quaint stag]

Is there any video or something?

[hearty quarry]

Have u followed the steps on the fx autoconfig GitHub repo ?

[quaint stag]

Yep i tried it is a bit confusing tbh for me. : (

[hearty quarry]

https://github.com/MrOtherGuy/fx-autoconfig

It's just copying a few files to ur zen installation

[hearty quarry]

Which part are u getting stuck at

[quaint stag]

I'm confused at copying part. Do i have to paste it in the Appdata or Default C location where browser is installed?

I have to paste only Program folder from that repo if i'm not wrong?

Contents*

[hearty quarry]

Is ur zen in program files ?

[quaint stag]

Yes I'm using Twilight

[hearty quarry]

Alr get in there

[quaint stag]

I pasted both the defaults folder and config.js to the directory

[hearty quarry]

Yeah

Now paste the stuff in the profile folder in the chrome folder

And the clear startup cache from about: support

[quaint stag]

The Lacuna Stuff?

[hearty quarry]

No from the repo

There is a folder named profile iirc

[quaint stag]

Alright btw clearing the startup cache does remove anything?

[hearty quarry]

Nope

[quaint stag]

Ok

[hearty quarry]

Just clears cache which the browser creates for js

It won't delete anything

[quaint stag]

It looks like this am i on the right track?

[quaint stag]

Alright

[quaint stag]

I did clear i don't know it worked or not 😅

Compact-bar looks like this.

[hearty quarry]

Gah damn that's not how it should work

Most prolly cheff changed stuff

Cause I have a fallback coded in case the js isnt installed

[hearty quarry]

Seems like they are correct

[hearty igloo]

Where are Resource and Utils Folders?

[quaint stag]

Umm from the Autoconfig?

[quaint stag]

Maybe i messed up something can you share your chrome folder and zen directory folder SS?

[hearty igloo]

Yes. It must all look like this.

[quaint stag]

Thanks i'll fix it now! Btw can you also share how does your Zen looks rn?

[hearty igloo]

Like this.

[quaint stag]

Also actually i'm trying to hide workspaces completely from the sidebar but it isn't working please can you help here's the code i'm using!

/* Hide top Workspace Indicator */ #zen-current-workspace-indicator-container { display: none !important; } #zen-tabs-wrapper { padding-top: 4px; /* Add missing padding */ }

[quaint stag]

Cool! Thanks.

[hearty igloo]

Get SuperPins mod. It removes Workspace Indicator.

[quaint stag]

Appreciate it! I'll check it too.

[hearty igloo]

Also, while fixing it, remove the already added js file of lacuna and download a new one.

[quaint stag]

Okay!

[high fjord]

Hey, I think these classes have been changed now in the latest update? I just get a black sidebar instead of my colour

[still tiger]

is anyone having this issue where the essentials don't have their colors anymore?

[hearty igloo]

@hearty quarry Is something wrong with Lacuna?

[hearty quarry]

i haven't tested it on twilight

am kinda on a personal time crunch rn

[hearty igloo]

In beta.

There are sharp corners where I've highlighted.

[hearty quarry]

thats weird

i haven't noticed that

i'll take a look

thank u

[red atlas]

@hearty quarry pinned extensions has been broke

[hearty quarry]

Ik

And prolly other stuff too

[red atlas]

I will try to help you and fix pinned extensions

[hearty quarry]

Sure thanks

[red atlas]

We need to make a new style for pinned extensions by using js something like that

Or i think we can request this feature to zen browser devs

[red atlas]

@hearty quarry add this at the end of your extensions.css file and you will get the pinned extension work fine in 1.21.6b

/* Zen 1.12.6b Fix */
:root[customizing] #TabsToolbar-customization-target {
visibility: visible !important;
}

.zen-workspace-pinned-tabs-section {
display: flex !important;
flex-direction: column;
gap: 4px;
}

[next spruce]

@hearty quarry your sidebar width script not working ?

[hearty quarry]

it's not working now ?

on which twi ?

[next spruce]

latest

have u tested

maybe fault on my side can u confirm pls

[hearty quarry]

which version ?

17t ?

tested it on latest beta and it works

[next spruce]

1.13t

[next spruce]

i am saying in twilight cause many other scripts also broked

[hearty quarry]

aight

will check once

[next spruce]

is it working?

[still tiger]

helloo, did zen change anything? some code i took from previous versions of lacuna aint working anymore

  height: 50x !important;

#zen-media-controls-toolbar #zen-media-main-vbox {
  padding: 9px !important;```

also if a tab container is used and the container indicator is turned off favourites lose their color

[hearty quarry]

This beta ?

[still tiger]

Nope I simply just updated since I didn’t do so for the last two weeks

[quaint stag]

Is there anyway to add pinned extensions in Lacuna? @hearty quarry

[hearty quarry]

Add the pinned extension css manually

[quaint stag]

Can you quote it here i can't seem to find it!

[hearty igloo]

Hey, follow this straight away. #1347445886384345089 message

[hearty igloo]

Your theme doesn't have Pinned Extensions CSS by default?

[hearty quarry]

nope

[hearty igloo]

https://tenor.com/view/skeleton-gif-13148928981517710530

[hearty quarry]

i don't use it

i don't any reason why i should add it to lacuna

when it can easily be added by the user

[hearty igloo]

Nvm, it just suited the design of Lacuna.

[hearty quarry]

i never saw the point of it , no offence

i don't use too many extensions whom i need to click on a regular basis

it just adds clutter for me

once again personal opinion only

[hearty igloo]

Oh, makes sense then.

[hearty quarry]

ye

[quaint stag]

I'm having some issue. : (

Nvm fixed it thanks though!

[hearty igloo]

@hearty quarry Forward the link to be inserted in Cosine to install lacuna.

[still tiger]

[hearty igloo]

[hearty quarry]

Uhhh , I have kinda halted all developments regarding lacuna ... gonna focus on my academics for a while now ... i might resume development later but not now (and no promises)

This has been a really awesome community and I owe it to you guys ... thank u for all the kind words guys

Peace

[still tiger]

No problem dude all the best with your studies
