Visualiser widget crashing about qtile-extras

[elParaguayo]

Thanks for the report and sorry to hear about the crash.

How are you restarting qtile?

    Key([mod, "control"], "r", lazy.reload_config(), desc="Reload the config"),

i am using keybinding to reload.
this issue is also there if i do
qtile cmd-obj -o cmd -f reload_config

[elParaguayo]

Can't recreate this. Reloading the config works correctly for me.

For me also crashes, i have found that it happens when using the options Autostart and Hide, removing those will not crash

Edit*, Pretty much every option in the widget except background color, bar_colour and decorations are crashing qtile on config reload.

Thanks for the update. I'll need to test some more but won't have a chance until next week.

I wonder if it's the config reload that's the problem here, not the specific settings. It should kill the background processes on a reload and restart them.

EDIT: I'm not encountering any issues with those setting when reloading the config.

I'm still not able to recreate this.

@Aneeqasif @gibranlp are you still getting crashes on the latest version (NB you can only use latest version if you're also using the git version of qtile).

[elParaguayo]

Ok. I get an occasional crash when I stop() the widget, Interesting...

This should hopefully be fixed in #158. Please test if you can.
