Wbar Instructions & Tips

To start wbar on startup, add the following line to /root/.xinitrc - add the line before #exec $CURRENTWM like below:

# Start wbar application launcher:
sleep 3 && wbar -above-desk -jumpf 1 -pos bottom -nanim 3 -zoomf 1.8 -idist 10 -isize 38 -bpress -balfa 0 -falfa 100 &

#exec $CURRENTWM
#v2.11 GuestToo suggested this improvement...





If you would like your wbar to be hidden  (until the mouse cursor passes over it)  this can be achieved by changing -falfa 100 to -falfa 0

If you have your wbar positioned at either the bottom or top of your screen,  and you would like to move it up or down respectively you can.
Add the following switch to your launch command: -offset (number of pixels)
for example: -offset 30

These are the options (switches) available.
