how to config openbox + tint2 if i want ...

hey guys!

... if i want to have shown tint2 only on 3 of the 4 default ob desktops?

i know there are options to select the monitors where tint2 will be drawn in tint2rc - but they don't apply to me because i am using only 1 monitor.

and i know there is an option to either draw an application on one or an all desktops in rc.xml of ob. (default for tint2 obviously: an all desktops, i guess)

reason for my question:

i am playing eve online with wine.
it isn't possible to switch between desktops if i set to fullscreen w/o wine desktop emulation for some reason - therefore i have to emulate a desktop at 1920x1080 resolution in order to be able to play eve at this resolution.

i was able to deactivate the ob decoration for this wine desktop, but tint2 still is "stealing" valuable pixels at the bottom edge of screen.
this is annoying - i need (semi-)fullscreen.

are there any possibilities for me except putting tint2 into the background layer (tint2rc) in general?

please excuse my bad english - thank you!

greetings and merry christmas

did you try "panel_layer = bottom" option or enable the autohide capability.
