[Fixed] Openbox: new windows open in the background

Alejandro (a.k.a KZKG^Gaara)

 When opening new windows in Openbox, do they appear in the background and do you have to change the focus to access them? The problem is due to a faulty configuration. Let's see how to fix it.


I opened the file ~ / .config / openbox / rc.xml:

nano ~ / .config / openbox / rc.xml

Between labels y , add:


  
    Yes
 

Just in case, restart Openbox and everything is solved.

    Well, it has never happened to me, what if I would like is to add the effect of dragging the window and have it auto-adjust without using compiz XD

    A greeting.

    Hello, very good friend, the tip… I will have it on hand in case I ever have problems. One question. Do you know how to make the liferea indicator icon appear (the one next to the clock and says how many new posts there are) in the lubuntu panel? Thanks in advance!

    How would that be? Drag the window to an edge of the screen and make it "stick"? Is that?

    That should be in the Liferea settings. If not, I remember that there was an application to "iconify" all open applications and be able to send them to the panel ...
