1) I have a 1 line conky at the top of my screen. I would like to be able to view it all the time, just like in Openbox. How can I set a margin of 12 px in fluxbox?
2) Every time I select a wallpaper to change, the new wallpaper shows up for about a second and then reverts back to the old one. But If I select the same wallpaper again, it sets it. This used to work previously. Here's my relevant section from fluxbox menu
[submenu] (Wallpapers) {}
[wallpapers] (/usr/share/fluxbox/backgrounds)
[wallpapers] (~/Wallpapers)
[end]
3) When I right click to get the menu, and then not select anything from it, the menu stays on even if I click on other active windows. The only way it will go away is to click on the desktop for which I have to minimize a few windows. This is annoying since I want the active window to grab focus and not have a menu block my view. Is there anyway to get rid of the menu when you click other active windows?
4) What would be the keybinding entry to show the desktop - i.e. minimize all windows at once.? I know in openbox its as simple as assigning a shortcut to <command>ToggleShowDesktop</command>

---- Ok I got this one working by adding a
Mod4 d: ShowDesktop
in the fluxbox keys file

Is conky running in it's own window ? You know, the own_window variable in the config, if that is set to false that could be the problem with your wallpaper, how often do you have conky update itself ?
Don't know about the menu, but I remember it as being a buggy part of fluxbox back when I used it, I think I even had that same issue...
Anyway, seems like you would be happy if you just switched to openbox
The day Microsoft makes a product that doesn't suck, is the day they make a vacuum cleaner.

But if they tell you that I've lost my mind, maybe it's not gone just a little hard to find...

Conky has its own window.Conky updates every second. yeah the menu thing is annoying.
and I do use openbox on tty1 ...fluxbox on tty2 ....just that I like fluxbox too at times (when I am bored with OB)...even planning to install another wm like wmii or dwm (probably on tty3) -- because I have never tried a tiling wm before.
