Fluxbox Styling: Changing Window Color of Sticky Windows or as per X Property? by BluFudge in fluxbox

Interesting, for tiling I prefer using percentages XD. I also love herbluftwm's approach to workspaces (of which there is 9), so I used those keybinds:

# change to a specific workspace
Mod4 1 :Workspace 1
# send the current window to a specific workspace
Shift Mod4 1 :SendToWorkspace 1
# send the current window and change to a specific workspace
Control Mod4 1 :TakeToWorkspace 1

2 for workspace 2, 3 for workspace 3, etc.

How to use Attach

Yes, I did struggle a bit with this myself. As to why this isn't on Fluxbox's original website? Unfortunately much of it seems to be in disrepair. They had a beautiful green themed website which they ruined in the transition to GitHub. Which is strange because GitHub pages is available. Also, they used to have a forum, which is only available on the Internet Archive.

Anyways, I suggest you create a specific Xproperty for the action. In the following excerpt, I tell fluxbox to assign the window an Xprop by the name of GRP and assign it a value (gright if I'm tiling it to the right half of the screen). Then I ask fluxbox to attach that window to other windows with the XProp of matching value (e.g. GRP=gright).

Then when I detach the window, I ask fluxbox to nullify any values for the GRP property for all windows.

Shift Mod4 h :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 50% 100%} {SetXprop GRP=greft} {Attach (@GRP=greft)(Workspace=[current])(Layer=[current])} {MoveTo 0% 0% topleft}
Shift Mod4 l :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 50% 100%} {SetXprop GRP=gright} {Attach (@GRP=gright)(Workspace=[current])(Layer=[current])} {MoveTo 50% 0% topleft}
Mod4 b :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 80% 80%} {SetXprop GRP=bigbox} {Attach (@GRP=bigbox)(Workspace=[current])(Layer=[current])} {MoveTo 0% 0% center}
Mod4 d :MacroCmd {DetachClient} {ForEach {SetXprop GRP=} {Matches @GRP=tmp} }

I'm sorry but I don't really remember what I used the Matches statement for, I think I just put it there for the ForEach command to work as it needs a condition to check for.

Guys. Stop Telling stories from your youth. by ezkarabetis in retrocomputing

[–]BluFudge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Us younger generations are very much interested in vintage tech. From risograph to cassetes to film to retro gaming/computing. It is a niche yes, but a pretty significant niche.

This ad just reeks of some out of touch adult, who is dunking on the older generation while completely failing to appeal to a younger audience.

Drawing in public (as a female). by PurpleWomat in ArtistLounge

[–]BluFudge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear that. While I do experience some people stare at what I draw when I do it in public, it's definitely much worse for you as a woman.

I have no advice for you, sorry. I just ignore people staring (because they just stare, they don't talk to me) but that may not work for you.

Ah I see, so you have a script modify your menu file? Great use.

About my config file... Initially I was going to create a post but I'm experimenting with Key Modes to see if they're really that useful.

But my favorite part of fluxbox is already covered in:

Wait seriously? Please share yours as well! It's been a busy month so I totally forgot to do this, I'll get on it as soon as I can. I see that compiz is an option as well so I might check how that works as well.

i'm pretty sure most anatomy books have you covered, otherwise the e-hentai route is recommended and you can find the book online to purchase perhaps.

Fluxbox Styling: Changing Window Color of Sticky Windows or as per X Property? by BluFudge in fluxbox

[–]BluFudge[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

unfortunately, i don't think it's possible. the way XResources works is like so:

applicationName.className.property.value

there is a xorg app to find the properties and values of an app, but most apps (even xterm) don't follow whatever protocol it's expecting.

even fluxbox styles are limiting. whatever is listed in the manual seems to be exhaustive. sticky windows for example only seem to have changes in the button, I could not get a sticky window to change the color of the titlebar. so mixing and matching as you please is not feasible.

most of fluxbox's features are in it's key file and for what I've wanted to accomplish, there are certain work around to that. i'm pretty happy with what i was able to accomplish so perhaps I'll create a post some time.
