Re: Share your Openbox Desktop ! :)

I use an Openbox setup with an auto-hiding titlebar for windows that are maximized (either vertically or horizontally).
It saves a bit of vertical space, because I can see the window's title in the taskbar and I never close fullscreen windows with the window controls anyway. To achieve that I use Orcsome with this config.

Taskbar: tint2 config
GTK theme: Zukitre with a couple of tweaks
Openbox theme: slightly modified Numix theme
Icon theme: Faenza (from the official repository)
Wallpaper: link
Cbatticon (only on laptop) for battery info and Volumeicon for volume control in the system tray.

I wanted something clean and I think I succeeded.

I use openbox pipemenu instead of conky

Getting Dobbie to post configs/dotfiles is like pulling teeth.  He doesn't share much other than a different screenshot every other hour.

I wanted my netbook to look like it's big brother, which runs GNOME.

Edit: Oh, I didn't notice the last post before me was like a year ago. Went back to Openbox just because I missed it and thought I'd share a screenshot.

Re: Share your Openbox Desktop ! :)

here is my openbox setup. I am not sure where that wallpaper came from. I made the openbox/gtk theme using oomox. The calendar is rainlendar i needed one that could be used for setting appointments and what not. The conky is older style I found this one from someone named victor one of those conky theme sites not original but it did require being updated to the newer conky format. I hope you guys enjoy.

Openbox with Themix shiki-dust theme and colorized Numix icons, Noto Sans fonts, and xfce4-panel. I forget where I got the wallpaper, sorry.

Re: Share your Openbox Desktop ! :)

Raspberry Pi 4b running Raspbian on official 7" touchscreen. This OS is fully touch operated.

I couldn't find any acceptable touch-based menus, so I programmed this one in C using xlib libraries. The menu uses popen or exelcp to launch applications and has some handy features, such as internal globbing (for when the user chooses not to waste resources opening a shell to do it):
https://i.ibb.co/C64PswB/2021-11-09-131 … -scrot.png

Touch-activated reader made in C. This reader automatically stores your bookmark. It does everything you need, and that's all. It runs in any terminal. The date is displayed in a notification app I made in C:
https://i.ibb.co/VSQYdcF/2021-11-09-190 … -scrot.png

Simple terminal in fullscreen.
https://i.ibb.co/Vq4x1jz/2021-11-09-132 … -scrot.png

Windows may be moved and resized via touching sides/corners of windows. To simplify the look, invisible buttons have been added to the application windows. Tapping the top right corner closes the window. Tapping the top left brings up a menu:

Running Chromium. Using compton as a compositor. The panel was made in C by me as no others were lightweight or stable enough.
