Widget configuration
--------------------
2022-07-25 00:08:44 -06:00
The following types of widgets (defined in
:file:`hack/lua/plugins/dwarfmonitor.lua`) can be displayed on the main fortress
mode screen:
2022-07-25 00:08:44 -06:00
``misery``
Show overall happiness levels of all dwarves.
``date``
Show the in-game date.
``weather``
Show current weather (e.g. rain/snow).
``cursor``
Show the current mouse cursor position.
The file :file:`dfhack-config/dwarfmonitor.json` can be edited to control the
2022-07-25 00:08:44 -06:00
positions and settings of all widgets. This file should contain a JSON object
with the key ``widgets`` containing an array of objects:
2022-07-25 00:24:35 -06:00
.. code-block:: lua
{
"widgets": [
{
"type": "widget type (weather, misery, etc.)",
"x": X coordinate,
"y": Y coordinate
<...additional options...>
}
]
}
X and Y coordinates begin at zero (in the upper left corner of the screen).
Negative coordinates will be treated as distances from the lower right corner,
beginning at 1 - e.g. an x coordinate of 0 is the leftmost column, while an x
2022-07-25 00:08:44 -06:00
coordinate of -1 is the rightmost column.
By default, the x and y coordinates given correspond to the leftmost tile of
the widget. Including an ``anchor`` option set to ``right`` will cause the
rightmost tile of the widget to be located at this position instead.
Some widgets support additional options:
* ``date`` widget:
* ``format``: specifies the format of the date. The following characters
are replaced (all others, such as punctuation, are not modified)
* ``Y`` or ``y``: The current year
* ``M``: The current month, zero-padded if necessary
* ``m``: The current month, *not* zero-padded
* ``D``: The current day, zero-padded if necessary
* ``d``: The current day, *not* zero-padded
The default date format is ``Y-M-D``, per the ISO8601_ standard.
.. _ISO8601: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601
* ``cursor`` widget:
* ``format``: Specifies the format. ``X``, ``x``, ``Y``, and ``y`` are
replaced with the corresponding cursor cordinates, while all other
characters are unmodified.
* ``show_invalid``: If set to ``true``, the mouse coordinates will both be
displayed as ``-1`` when the cursor is outside of the DF window; otherwise,
nothing will be displayed.
