[DWM] how do I get rofi to show when I press the start button?

[signal flint]

you

you have to add static const char *rofidruncmd[] = {"rofi", "-show", "drun", "-config", "/home/will/.config/rofi/Paper.rasi", NULL};

and { MODKEY, XK_s, spawn, {.v = rofidruncmd } },

in config.def.h

yeah

[signal flint]

also change the config of yours

work?

in dwm default is mod key and left button to get window moved

can you show your config.def.h of your dwm

?

or you can send a screenshot

didn’t you install file manager?

i put my rofi command code just under my tercmd

will that be a problem?

did your rofi command work in your terminal?

weird

theme also installed?

rofi

static const char *rofidruncmd[] = {"rofi", "-show", "drun", "-config", "/home/killertofus/.config/rofi/Paper.rasi", NULL};

you have to install Paper.rasi

https://github.com/tkuwill/My-dwm-dotfiles-My-st-config/blob/main/rofi/Paper.rasi

have this in your directory

work?

…

add one

then put this theme file into it, then it should work

work?

hey you only have static const char *rofidruncmd[] = {"rofi", "-show", "drun", "-config", ".config/rofi/Paper.rasi", NULL};

/home/killertofus/.config/rofi/THEME.rasi

also did you recompile dwm?

[signal flint]

you can have what name you want

but i used Paper.rasi

yeah

then use that name

then should work

correct

i don’t know but i config dwm by config.def.h

then every time when i configured, i ran rm -rf config.h && sudo make clean install

Paper.rasi also in ~/.config/rofi ?

put { MODKEY, XK_s, spawn, {.v = rofidruncmd } },

in front of the { MODKEY|ShiftMask, XK_Return, spawn, {.v = termcmd } },

i don’t know why yours doesn’t work but mine works good. you can check my code on my github

,

comma

{ MODKEY, XK_s, spawn, {.v = rofidruncmd } }, { MODKEY|ShiftMask, XK_Return, spawn, {.v = termcmd } },
