Stalonetray + Openbox = border?

PvtVenom · 2009-04-10 17:10:42

hey all im using Openbox + stalonetray and i have stalonetray set to be transparent and started with the stalonetray -w command to be able to control it with obconf but it shows up with a 2px border around it that i cannot get rid of and if i do the osd border size to 0 in my themerc it still hve a very small border. So can someone help me get rid of this annoying border issue? oh yea and in obconf settings dont draw a border around undecorated windows doesnt do anything

Could you post your stalonetrayrc?

I'm bumping this thread as I have this issue too. Anyone found a solution?

This is still probably coming from the OB theme somewhere, maybe padding.width?

Xyne · 2009-07-29 15:25:21

It's probably openbox's dock border. You can quickly test that by loading your theme in obtheme and changing "osd.border.color" while using the live preview mode. If the border color changes, then you know which border it is.

Shameless self-promotion aside, you can also edit your themerc file manually and then reload it.

Tacuabe · 2019-10-01 18:22:46

I know this thread is quite old, but for what's it worth, I had the same problem. The last post by Xyne is indeed correct and solved the issue. I edited my themerc with osd.border.corlor: black and the border disappeared against my black background color. Of course if your background is another color you'll have to make the two colors match. Additionally your other osd windows will have their border color also changed to the new one.

Indeed… Perhaps consider that before then going ahead and necrobumping.

Closing.

All the best,
