I have updated QBW but there are no scaling buttons for the size. When I try to edit the widget a message like this pops out:

Warning!!!
QBW Instance [gueen-beecon.desktop-1]
is not currently active in th system!

Purge configuration file from obsolete settings?

I've uninstalled the QBW and installed it again but this didn't solve the problem. What to do?

It means that your configuration file ~/.queen_beecon still holds configuration data from a previous QBW Instance ID number 1 which is not active any more in the system.

This is useful in case you want to restore QBW instances after a crash or after a system backup/restore.

If you answer Yes, this obsolete configuration data will be removed from your configuration file ... if you answer No, it will still be kept inside configuration file and next time you'll open settings same question will come up.

Ciao.

What did you answer to that warning.
Select yes to purge the file it won't remove your settings.Then add a new widget with the desired command and see if it works.

Edit: Oops bit late

OK ... Queen BeeCon Widget release 0.1.9.9 is now in extras-devel
Partial Change Log since 0.1.4
Code:
queen-beecon (0.1.9.9)

  * New: Added "On Sight" Update Policy (If flagged, content is not updated if widget is out of sight (on other desktop) or if display is locked or in stand-by)   
  * New: Parameter Variables substitution for using with scripts which holds "On Sight" or "Out Of Sight" status: $QBW_ON_SIGHT (true=QBW Instance is "ON SIGHT", that is widget is on current desktop and display is not locked or on stand by. false=QBW Instance is not on current desktop and visible or display is off or on stand by)
  * New: DBUS method "is_on_sight" which returns true (QBW Instance is "ON SIGHT", that is, widget is on current desktop and display is not locked or on stand by) or false (QBW Instance is not on current desktop and visible or display is off or on stand by)
  * Changed: Optimized usability of settings for Widget Width and Height
  * Changed: Optimized progress animation logic for visibility when instance not On Sight
  * Bugfixing: - 

queen-beecon (0.1.9.8)

  * New: Implemented per-instance progress animation with customizable number of frames, timer, position and possibility to have it shown or hidden (Now every instance can have its own progress animation) + Settings for Hide/Show, frames #, timer, position and basename. 
  * Changed: Extended error message text to all DBUS methods
  * Changed: Now when command or script do not return any output no more "No Output" text gets printed inside the widget
  * Bugfixing: Added error message if non existing parameter is supplied to all DBUS methods "set_param_*" 
  * Bugfixing: Under certain conditions HotSpot Index was not properly reset in case update policies prevented execution of script from happening. Fixed.

queen-beecon (0.1.9.7)

  * New: -
  * Changed: Line width for widget contours FX when widget pressed set to 1px    
  * Bugfixing: Reentrancy issues for DBUS Monitor. Fixed
  * Bugfixing: "If you enter a long name for the title, the right part of the prefs gui isn't visible anymore and you can't scroll to the now hidden gadgets!". Fixed. Area is now scrollable also horizontally.
  * Bugfixing: Issues with positioning of small widgets with respect to bottom and right margins. Fixed. 

queen-beecon (0.1.9.6)

  * New: REVOLUTION!!! :) Implementation of multiple (9 = grid 3x3) Hot Spots to click on the widget. Clicked Hot Spot Index Position can then be passed to the executed script via Parameter Variables Substitution $QBW_HOTSPOT_PRESS (0=Not Pressed or other update policy,1=Top Left,2=Top Center,3=Top Right,4=Center Left,5=Center,6=Center Right,7=Bottom Left,8=Bottom Center,9=Bottom Right)
  * New: Parameter Variables substitution for using with scripts which hold Proxy related information: $QBW_HTTP_PROXY, $QBW_HTTPS_PROXY, $QBW_FTP_PROXY, $QBW_SOCKS_PROXY, $QBW_RTSP_PROXY (In the format <host:port>)
  * New: Parameter Variables substitution for using with scripts which hold Proxy related information: $QBW_IGNORE_HOSTS_PROXY (In the format <host1;host2;host...>)
  * New: Parameter Variables substitution for using with scripts which hold Proxy related information: $QBW_AUTO_CONFIG_PROXY_URL
  * New: Parameter Variables substitution for using with scripts which hold status or persistency information stored in configuration via DBUS method call set_param_string string:"rememberMe" string:<rememberthis> : $QBW_REMEMBER_ME. Useful, for example, for remembering values like counters across subsequent command executions. 
  * Changed: Logic to purge configuration settings of non-existent QBW instances from configuration file. (Check/Purge performed at every entrance in Settings dialog)    
  * Bugfixing: Reentrancy problem with Settings dialog box. At times, in case of laggy interface, 2 or more instances of dialog were opening. Fixed. 
  * Bugfixing: Incomplete unreferentiation of DBUS resources. Fixed. 
  * Bugfixing: Incomplete unreferentiation of callback functions for async command execution and timers. Fixed. 
  * Bugfixing: Incorrect logic for updating when widget desktop was active/on. It was updating also when active widget's desktop was swept off. Now updates content only if "Update on Desktop" is TRUE and Widget's Desktop is being swept on. Fixed. 

queen-beecon (0.1.9.5)

  * New: Added supplementary progress images/icons (cycle is "queen-beecon-progress[0-3].png") searching logic in directory storage in this order 1) "~/Mydocs/.images/queen_beecon_dir" 2) "~/.queen_beecon_dir"   
  * New: Added button in Command Edit dialog to add instance only commands to the list of stored commands   
  * New: Implementation of following DBUS methods: get_current_results_text (Get current content of results text) 
  * New: Parameter Variables substitution for using with scripts which holds the current content of results text ($QBW_CURRENT_RESULTS_TEXT=Current content of results text)
  * Changed: Default shape for Beecons is now rectangle. Hexagonal cell will be only shown when pressed  
  * Changed: Shadow/Light effects on widget surface, either when pressed or not, are now fixed in size (~4px)  
  * Changed: Changed some logic in simple Command Edit dialog box  
  * Changed: After instance imported, now advanced dialog box closes and reverts back to settings with all parameters reloaded
  * Changed: Changed Warning and Information notification in Advanced Settings to display hildon_banner*  
  * Changed: Changed DBUS connection acquisition for DBUS Monitor.  
  * Bugfixing: Refined and fixed logic for DBUS Monitor initialization and deinitialization   
  * Bugfixing: Changed and fixed logic for handling/displaying Exit Code if error spawning asynchronous command  
  * Bugfixing: New asynchronous execution logic was not releasing file handles. Fixed

queen-beecon (0.1.9.4)

  * New: Ability to execute scripts by intercepting specific DBUS broadcasted signals/methods/errors issued by the system or other applications + Relevant configuration parameters (Ex.keyboard lock, slide open/close, ecc.)   
  * New: Parameter Variables substitution for using with scripts triggered by intercepted DBUS broadcasted signals/methods ($QBW_EXEC_REASON=QBW_DBUS_MONITOR, $QBW_DBUS_VERBOSE_OUTPUT=Verbose Output see wiki)
  * Changed: Changed icons for displaying command execution in progress (shown when script in progress and hidden on execution completion)
  * Changed: Package installation now performs an automatic restart of hildon-home process
  * Changed: Synchronization in asynchronous script execution logic for Exit Status and Output   
  * Bugfixing: Memory reallocation bugs fixed in new async command execution logic  

queen-beecon (0.1.9.3)

  * New: Added icon for displaying command execution in progress (shown when script in progress and hidden on execution completion) 
  * New: Implementation of Asynchronous Non Hildon-Home blocking command execution (Test Drive is still Synchronous for command timing evaluation purposes)  
  * Changed: -  
  * Bugfixing: Memory reallocation bugs fixed for all string values management in settigs dialog box  

queen-beecon (0.1.9.2)

  * New: Added custom timeout in seconds for periodic update, not just predefined list of values
  * Changed: Restyle in settings configuration for Update Policies, Fonts & Colors Buttons  
  * Bugfixing:  

queen-beecon (0.1.9.1)

  * New: Parameter Variables substitution usable by script (Ex. Own Instance ID, Reason for updating content)
  * New: Implementation of Command and Results text orientation angle (w/ relevant configuration parameters)
  * New: New extended color dialog for background and foreground colors (Old color selection deprecated; backward compatibility for instances exported from previous releases is guaranteed and settings upgraded as necessary)
  * Changed: Restyle in settings configuration for Beecon Command Exit Statuses area & Command Title/Results Settings area + changed color settings appearance  
  * Changed: Removed Help hints from settings dialog box (refer to the WIKI)!  
  * Changed: Changed transpacency settings both for beecons and for snippets... now both are less transparent  
  * Bugfixing: Disabled instance (icon) wasn't correctly drawn on startup; fixed 
  * Bugfixing: Memory deallocation bug for >=3 Exit Status image file beecon_idxge2_ImgFilename; fixed 

queen-beecon (0.1.9)

    * New: New extended font dialog for command and results labels (Old font selection deprecated; backward compatibility for instances exported from previous releases is guaranteed and settings upgraded as necessary)
    * Changed: Due to new font settings implementation, exported instances from this release onward will have their fonts reset to command="Nokia Sans bold italic 12" results="Nokia Sans bold 12" when imported in previous releases
    * Bugfixing: Some fixing and cleanup in package install/uninstall 

queen-beecon (0.1.8-testonly-PR1.2)

    * WARNING This release is for testing purposes only as PR1.2 upgrade brought some instabilities which need forensics!!!
    * New: Implementation of DBUS methods: reset_rearm_timer
    * New: QBW is now integrated into the N900 system backup/restore features according to standard specifications as better described in SDK "Using Backup Application" http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/Generic_Platform_Components/Using_Backup_Application#Custom_back-up_locations
    * Changed: Completely revised Timer logic and reset/re-arming for widget periodic auto-update

queen-beecon (0.1.7-PR1.1.1)

    * NOTE: Special Build for PR1.1.1
    * New: Implementation of Widget Instance visibility toggle and configuration parameter (for showing or hiding the widget also via DBUS)
    * New: Implementation of following DBUS methods: dbus_method_monitor, show, hide, wakeup, sleep, update_content, update_layout, exec, set_param_string, set_param_int32, set_param_uint32, set_param_double, set_param_boolean, get_param string, set_position, get_position, get_exit_status
    * New: Implementation of following DBUS signals: sig_content_updated
    * Changed: Enhanced DBUS implementation for Widget2Widget & System2Widget Inter Process Communication
    * Changed: Changed default values for some Update Policies in new QBW instances (updOnStartup now defaults to FALSE; updOnDesktop now defaults to FALSE) to prevent bugged Beecons from freezing hildon-home even after restart
    * Respect: To querty12@talk.maemo.org Many, many, many, many, many thanks for supporting QBW IPC implementation 

queen-beecon (0.1.6)

    * New: Simple DBUS implementation for Widget2Widget & System2Widget Inter Process Communication
    * New: Added Widget Instance ID in Settings Dialog Title
    * Changed: Compiled Vs. PR1.2

See complete Change Log in the WIKI

Usual WARNINGS apply to extras-devel material


Almost time to go to Extras-Testing

Feel free to experiment with all extended features implemented since 0.1.4 and please report bugs and experiences or feature requests here.

QBW shouldn't crash any more if upgraded from >=0.1.9.6 to 0.1.9.9!!! Please, report any problem or crash during installation/upgrade if they still persist

Have fun

what to say... thanks xD

here they goes.
pwr_on_bklght_max.txt will max up the backlight to lvl 255 (range 0 - 255) when dc supply or usb supply is connected
pwr_off_bklght_dim.txt will dim the backlight down to lvl 51 (range 0 - 255) when dc supply or usb supply is disconnected

Both snippets are invisible and update only with this two signals

Edit: i've uploaded also the 5 buffers for controlling the backlight from desktop, in the attached .zip

Probable bug in ver. 0.1.9.9 if someone else can test and reproduce also.
QBW widget won't monitor DBUS if @Sight is checked.

IMO @Sight should only disable updating during locked or offscreen but still keep the widget ready to intercept any dbus commands that are matched by pattern.Having the dbus monitoring off as well is equivalent to having the widget "disabled".
Correct me if I am wrong.

Correct me if I am wrong.
@Sight is an overall restriction by design ... not a bug.

There are plenty of ways to programmatically handle DBUS and other specific conditions ... just a matter of basic shell script programming and use of Parameter Substitution at Command Runtime

So is the dbus still monitored or not when this option is enabled? What I am trying to do is set @sight to false during dbus action using parameter substitution like you showed, but what is happening is if @sight is checked the command to disable @sight never gets run presumably because the widget is not active maybe.Any workaround to get this done please.
Thanks

Edit : Sorry I am probably not being clear why I need it to continue monitoring dbus, I can send you my code.
ps this is the last piece of puzzle to solving the problem I told you about
