Openbox + screenlets

Okay, so I'm using Screenlets with Openbox and was wondering how I can prevent them from showing up in the alt+tab dialog.

Re: Openbox + screenlets

you will need to modify your rc.xml up ~/.config/openbox

if you look through that file you will see examples of how it's done.

Enjoy

This doesn't work:

ass="RingSensorsScreenlet.py" >
    <layer>below</layer>
    <skip_pager>yes</skip_pager>
    <skip_taskbar>yes</skip_taskbar>
    <desktop>all</desktop>
</application>

Re: Openbox + screenlets

Perhaps you don't have the right class for the screenlet.  I don't use them, but this might help:

alias xp='echo "WM_CLASS(STRING) = \"NAME\", \"CLASS\"" && xprop | grep "WM_WINDOW_ROLE\|WM_CLASS"'

I have this setup in my zshrc, so all I have to do is type xp and then click on the window I want identified, and the info is there.
