Fluxbox Menu Editor GUI

One of the chief reasons I stick with Fluxbox is the menu which is fairly simple and configurable.

With the MX-21 however I can no longer utilize the python gui app known as the Fluxbox Menu Editor https://sourceforge.net/projects/fluxmenu.berlios/ .

It has worked dependably for me over years of ...

Re: trouble seeing cursor

Thanks for the replies! I noticed that I had installed big-cursor 3.10, which might be ideal, but I do not see where or how to implement it. I will play around some more and maybe find a better solution. For now, I am trying the olympus cursor.

trouble seeing cursor

I often have trouble finding and seeing my cursor. Maybe it is due to having a screen that shows more detail and pixels. I am always looking for more visible cursors.

Anybody have a similar concern who found some simple solutions?

I would love to know.

I use Fluxbox. I had to re-write many style ...

Re: The real way to check the forum

I love dipping into the Forum for ideas and feedback, but I must admit that I am often overwhelmed by it, and am not making the most efficient use of it.

I would like to suggest that one of the "MXperts" make a video that breaks it down into easy parts for people like me to understand. It could ...

Re: New MXFB video available

Dear i_ri,

This is absolutely wonderful, and your code substitution for the keys file works even better than how I configured my fluxbox window manger in the past! I didn't know I could cycle through windows as well as screens!

I spent all day comparing my old files to my new files-- and I was ...

Re: New MXFB video available

I used to be able to scroll workspaces by scrolling above the toolbar for the reason I cited.
I know it is possible, but don't know how to make it so now.

My intit file line is set to false; I typically keep 5 workspaces.

Thanks anyway.

Re: New MXFB video available

I really enjoyed this video, particularly about the app to make idesk easy. I hadn't noticed it, and had previously edited my .lnk files individually.

Instead of using the dock, I use wbar which has its own versatile configuration manager that allows transparencies and special effects. Wbar does ...

Re: Problem to get xplanetFX to work

I too have had trouble with xplanetFX.

I tried it in Fluxbox and XCFE.

I can get a decent rendition of xplanet (older CLI version)-- but it is quite difficult setting up (though the man page is straightforward).

There is no dedicated man for the xplanetFX version.

The info from the archived ...

Re: How to get the repo's G'Mic to work in Gimp and Krita

Thanks!

I will try your code after I understand MX-Linux better.

I am still trying to understand how it is working for my paricular setup.

And I am still impressed! Whether I do it your way, or my super-intuitive but woefully ignorant way-- it still is working for me beautifully!

When I feel a ...
