Session widget?

[joemicci]

If I missed that this already exists, forgive me. I would like to have a Session widget available within sfwbar, to which I can assign a button. Functionality could be simple:

• Log out
• Shutdown
• Reboot

When using the menu.widget, none of these options are present.

I'm not a dev/coder, but I have been looking at other widgets + man page to see if I can make sense of constructing one, but not there yet...

This should certainly be possible to implement. I think the question would be how to visually present it. Shall we include it as a submenu in the application menu or as a separate button with it's own popup?

The popup may have an advantage of being able to display a confirmation options (I.e. "are you sure you want to reboot - yes/no") in the same popup window.

@01micko, @sfs-pra, @napcok - you probably have more experience integrating the panel into the overall system than me. Do you have a view on this?

A separate widget/button would be my preference.

Yes, agreed - this would be ideal!

I'm using a submenu : /usr/share/sfwbar/startmenu-pra.widget
If you need a button, it might be better to use wlogout or something similar with great graphics capabilities. I have a hotkey call

I think you can get your session.widget base on winops.widget

I added a session.widget popup to the latest git. CSS for the confirmation buttons needs a bit of cleaning up. But it should work otherwise. @joemicci, it this what you had in mind?

Exactly what I had in mind! Thank you very much, @LBCrion !!
