This is very simple documentation for the 'override' GSettings key for
|
|
gnome-setting-daemon's xsettings plugin.
|
|
|
|
The override is given as a dictionary of overrides to be applied on top
|
|
of the usual values that are exported to the X server as XSETTINGS. The
|
|
intent of this is to allow users to override values of programmatically
|
|
determined settings (such as 'Gtk/ShellShowsAppMenu') and to allow
|
|
developers to introduce new XSETTINGS for testing (without having to kill the
|
|
gnome-settings-daemon running in the session and run their own patched
|
|
version).
|
|
|
|
The type of the overrides is 'a{sv}'.
|
|
|
|
The key gives the full XSETTINGS setting name to override (for example,
|
|
'Gtk/ShellShowsAppMenu'). The value is one of the following:
|
|
|
|
- a string ('s') for the case of a string XSETTING
|
|
|
|
- an int32 ('i') for the case of an integer XSETTING
|
|
|
|
- a 4-tuple of uint16s ('(qqqq)') for the case of a color XSETTING
|
|
|
|
Dictionary items with a value that is not one of the above types will be
|
|
ignored. Specifically note that XSETTINGS does not have a concept of
|
|
booleans -- you must use an integer that is either 0 or 1.
|
|
|
|
An example setting for this key (as expressed in GVariant text format)
|
|
might be:
|
|
|
|
{ 'Gtk/ShellShowsAppMenu': < 0 >, 'Xft/DPI': < 98304 > }
|
|
|
|
Noting that variants must be specified in the usual way (wrapped in <>).
|
|
|
|
Note also that DPI in the above example is expressed in 1024ths of an
|
|
inch.
