Disable Battery Time remaining

[quintrino]

I can see from some of the presets that you can toggle whether the battery widget shows the time remaining or not.

I'm looking to disable it.

I have { "type": "battery", "bordered": false, "remainingtime": false, "align": "left", }

But the time remaining, while initially hidden when I first plug in or unplug reappears after a while. How do I disable this? (I thought it was setting "remainingtime": false but this doesn't work.

Hey, please try the following:

{
"type": "battery",
"bordered": false,
"remainingtime": "no",
"align": "left"
}

Sadly that doesn't seem to work either. Does that work for you?

For some reason it used to work for me, but it doesn't seem to work anymore. The only other thing I could think of doing, is to use the original Battery.scpt - remove the time content and load it manually as appleScriptTitledButton.

I managed to disable it by creating a new button for battery by scratch. It's a bit roundabout but it's works fine. You have to create an executable bash script wherever you want with this inside:

#!/bin/bash
pmset -g batt | egrep "([0-9]+%).*" -o --colour=auto | cut -f1 -d';'

and then you can create a new appleScriptTitleButton in items.json that calls that file. Mine is like this:

  { "type": "appleScriptTitledButton", "align": "right", "autoResize": true,"source": {
      "inline": "do shell script \"~/./battery.sh\""
    },
