Hide Matchbox Panel
« on: January 14, 2005, 07:10:21 pm »
Is there a shortcut key or another easy way to hide the matchbox panel in order to get more space on the screen?

I think first pdaxrom had 2 virtual screens, and now they're at four.
Personally, I use a minimum of 6.

The panel is only on the first screen...
I think it's ctl-alt-arrow to move left and right.

I tend to use screen 1 just to leave it blank or maybe have a small aterm.
screen 2 is firefox, screen 3 is aterm full screen (using screen to im/irc), screen 4 is dillo, screen 5 is aterm full screen (for shell) and screen 6 is xmms.

etc.

ps: not exactly what you asked, but easy enough.  You can move things between windows
with shift-arrow?  I do with with my fingers -- so I'm trying to remember what keys I press.

Yep, I was wondering: can the panel be made omnipresent?

I've looked into openbox documentation and there's an action called ToggleOmniPresent (or something similar, can't recall now). This action can be associated to a keypress (for example) to make a window omnipresent... My question: does anybody know how it can be used to make the panel omnipresent all the time (i.e. toggling omni presente at startup)?

Thank you for any advice... I hope this is not so off-topic (a separate thread looked overkill...)

Bye,

Andrea

...or at least make windows maximise to the full size of the screen when the panel is not present (desktops 2+) - at the moment we have the worst of both worlds!
