Hi, Well there has to be a visual, to be able to cominucate with blackbox. I should have made it 1x1 pixel and placed it out of visual range.
A quick hack to always iconfy the window: On line 288 of wminterface add: setIconicState(bbtool->framewin, True); So you get: void WMInterface::NETNotifyStartup() { bbtool->setNETInit(); //wm_init=True; setIconicState(bbtool->framewin, True); .... cheers, John On Saturday 27 December 2003 13:39, Sam Halliday wrote: > hi there, > > i have been a long time blackbox user... and i;ve always used bblaunch to > launch certain applications. but i decided to move onto bbappconf today, as > it seems to be more appropriate. however there is one thing which annoys me > greatly about it... it has a visual appearance! i had suppposed that it > would just run as a deamon in the background, with no need to appear on my > screen at all. sure i can iconify it, which is a pain, and it is also > annoying that it appears in the icons list in that case (i cannot use the > -i flag as blackbox has not started yet in my .xinitrc by that stage). > > is there any way to setup/hack bbappconf so that it does not have a visual? > > cheers, > Sam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] List archives: http://asgardsrealm.net/lurker/splash/index.html Trouble?
