Available settings

You can set the following GPU widget settings in the simple-bar settings:

• Refresh frequency: The refresh frequency in milliseconds. Default is 2000 (2 seconds).
• Show on display: The displays on which the widget will be displayed. Add a list of indexes (for example: "1,2"). Leave blank to display the widget on every spaces. Default is "".
• Display as graph: Instead of show current CPU information, the widget will display a graphic showing the latest 100 seconds (it can change depending of the refresh frequency of the widget) of CPU activity. All drawn points are relative to the highest value. Default is false.
• Path to macmon binary: The binary path required to get GPU usage. Default is "/opt/homebrew/bin/macmon".

Display as graph mode can drain the battery faster than normal mode as it requires frequent redraws and needs to keep the past state in memory.
