FAQ
Why is the volume widget showing an error or it’s stuck at 0%?
- Sometimes this is due to Qtile volume widget not being able to detect your default Output Device, you can take a look in the wiki for more information.
- https://docs.qtile.org/en/latest/manual/ref/widgets.html#pulsevolume
Is there a autostart.sh script?
- Its located in scripts/ from Qtile folder
Does Qtile’s bar interacts with the mouse?
- It does, for example if you scroll on the tiny dots which are your workspaces (Active,Inactive,Empty etc) you’ll switch to the Left or Right or even click in one of them.
- Another example is the layout (columns by default), clicking on it allows you to switch between the available layouts
- CPU and RAM usage by clicking it’s going to open Btop (TUI System Monitor)
- Increase/Lower/Mute/ by interacting on the volume widget
