## Asking Quality Questions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Spending some time to precisely frame your question will save a lot of time.
|
||||||
|
You will better understand your problem and may be able to solve it yourself
|
||||||
|
and other will be able to better understand what you are asking.
|
||||||
|
Here are some tips:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Be explicit and precise:
|
||||||
|
* What are you trying to achieve?
|
||||||
|
* What problems have you encountered while trying to achieve this?
|
||||||
|
* What is stopping you from overcoming these problems?
|
||||||
|
* If a problem is difficult to describe, screenshots can help. Do not make
|
||||||
|
screenshots of your config file or error messages, copy-paste them as text.
|
||||||
|
* Provide as much context as possible. In most cases this includes at least the following:
|
||||||
|
* Window Manager
|
||||||
|
* Polybar version
|
||||||
|
* Relevant portions of your config file. If you are not sure what is relevant, provide the whole thing.
|
||||||
|
* How you start polybar
