@andyprough: you have seen the tiling app that is comes when you install mxfb-goodies, right? One of my videos ("mxfb-goodies") takes a look at that

Oh I see - I missed that video, but watching it now as I need the mxfb goodies. Your tiling is very similar to the one @mowest uses. Mine is basically the same except I'm using the "Super" key and the numbers on the keypad in a grid pattern. We are all using MacroCmd and ResizeTo and MoveTo to accomplish the same basic concepts though.

That Nitrogen wallpaper picker is really nice! I'm loving it.

Have you tried Zoom on fluxbox? I had a Zoom meeting this morning, and I had no window decorations, so I had to use some hacky methods of moving the Zoom window and scaling it's size properly. Couldn't grab or resize the window with the mouse or with keyboard. Is there a --gtk option I should be using when I start it up? What's weird is now that I start it a second time, I do have window decorations. Maybe I just need to start, close, and re-start it to get it to work properly?

I have, but the Zoom screen does not scale properly for me either. After finally figuring out what was going on, I do Alt+RightClick to make it smaller, then move it down to where I can see the maximize button. Clicking on that gives me a correct screen. I could probably put something into the app folder, but I forget each time...

That's what I am using also, specifically the Alt+KeyPad tiling - albeit in a slightly altered form.
I like to keep some space between the tiles, and therefore reduced the percentages by 1% :

Code: Select all

### ALt and NUMPAD keys :
Mod1 KP_1 :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 49%  49%} {MoveTo 15 05 BottomLeft}
Mod1 KP_2 :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 99%  49%} {MoveTo 00 05 Bottom}
Mod1 KP_3 :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 49%  49%} {MoveTo 15 05 BottomRight}
Mod1 KP_4 :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 49%  99%} {MoveTo 15 00 Left}
Mod1 KP_6 :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 49%  99%} {MoveTo 15 00 Right}
Mod1 KP_7 :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 49%  49%} {MoveTo 15 05 TopLeft}
Mod1 KP_8 :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 99%  49%} {MoveTo 10 05 Up}
Mod1 KP_9 :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 49%  49%} {MoveTo 15 05 TopRight}
### center and resize 70%
Mod1 KP_5 :MacroCmd {ResizeTo  70%  70%} {MoveTo 00 00 Center}
### toggle full screen / restore
Mod1 KP_0 :ToggleCmd {Restore} {ResizeTo 50%  50%}
