[FEATURE] Variable styling about eww HOT 10 CLOSED

i'm confused, what exactly are you missing there? you can already use the style property like any other property 🤔 Are you looking for a <style> tag?

from eww.

@elkowar He wants to mention {{vars}} in the style property.

Lemme show u:

<eww>
<definitions>
  <def name="main">
   <label text="yes this" style="color: {{color}};"/>
  </def>
  </definitions>
  <variables>
    <var name="color">#ebdbb2</var> 
  </variables>
  <windows>
    <window name="main_window" stacking="fg" focusable="false" screen="1">
    <geometry anchor="center" x="1700px" y="110px" width="350px" height="170px"/>
      <widget>
        <main/>
      </widget>
    </window>
  </windows>
</eww>

And then be able to run eww update color=#282828 to update the label text color.

from eww.

Is that not possible currently? 🤔 if so, thats a bug

from eww.

I think you can do this, might play around with it to test et

from eww.

I don't think it is, i made a var called color with the value "red", and the logs say that it got an error:

[src/eww_state.rs:34] Error while updating UI based after state change: <data>:1:22'' is not a valid color name

This is from debug:

style": AttrValue([Primitive("background-color: "), Expr(color), Primitive(";")]),

and state:

color: "red"

from eww.

Hmm, I have a widget that uses attributes in style quite a bit & it works fine, maybe It is unique to vars?, What happens if you put #f00 in color?

from eww.

The exact same error

from eww.

That's a bug then

from eww.

Is this still an issue?

from eww.

I'll close this, as there hasn't been a response in over a year
