Visibility - Cannot click
Hello!
I recently installed visibility-svn from aur. I was wondering, is it possible to switch to a desktop by just clicking on the desktop name at visibility? Or minimizing/maximizing the window i click on visibility? Because currently it just displays the desktops and the currently opened applications and does nothing while I click.
If it's possible to do this, does anyone have a clue what might be wrong? Maybe an optional dependency I'm missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Visibility - Cannot click
you ought to be able to switch applications/desktops by clicking on their icons. according to the pkgbuild, the dependencies are: libpng, libsigc++2.0, libxft. i don't know if you could be missing any of those (seems unlikely) but you can check..
I've seen young people waste their time reading books about sensitive vampires. It's kinda sad. But you say it's not the end of the world... Well, maybe it is!

Re: Visibility - Cannot click
weird. just a couple days ago i checked out the latest revision of visibility with subversion and installed it, and it works perfectly fine.

All these dependencies are installed 
I tried to install visibility-svn at work and I have the same problem.

Re: Visibility - Cannot click
It's a known bug, I emailed the author about it once a few months ago. Outside of openbox (at least, it happened in xfce), the application was not receiving button_press events. I guess it still hasn't been fixed..

Re: Visibility - Cannot click
That's it. Works perfectly under Openbox - just tested. Thanks for pointing this out, stonecrest
