It is used as default in [[Puppy526 Puppy5.2x Lucid]], but [[JWM]] can be used instead via [[WMSwitcher]]. See [[LupufySlacko]] to add ""OpenBox"" to Puppy 5.3x Slacko. --- ~Also see OpenboxExtra packaged by [[vicmz]]. It includes [[Tint]] ([[panel]]) and themes. --- ~""OpenBox"" can have a nice translucent dock and its keyboard and mouse bindings can be configured. Mouse bindings can be important as some applications shortcut key conflict with the standard Linux ones, for example [[Inkscape]]. ==Configure== ~Use "Openbox config" and "Fbpanel configuration" ~{{image url="http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?mode=attach&id=52691" link="http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?mode=attach&id=52691" title="screenshot" alt="screenshot" width="250"}} ==Screenshots== ~{{image link="http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?mode=attach&id=83599" url="http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?mode=attach&id=83599" title="text" alt="text" width="200"}} ~OB-Precise 15.01 ==Also on the Wiki== ~[[OpenBoxExtra]] - Openbox packaged with [[Tint]], themes and more ~[[LupufySlacko]] - Get ""OpenBox"" for Puppy 5.3x Slacko ~[[WMSwitcher]] - change window manager. ~[[JWM]] ==Newer puppies using Openbox== ~[[http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=97252 OB-Precise 15.01 kernel 3.17.7 PAE]] [[Upup]] created by [[vicmz]] ==Related Webpages== ~[[http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=68200 Openbox/Fbpanel, How to set it all up.]] ~[[http://208.109.22.214/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=52174 Openbox Window Manager thread]] ~[[http://openbox.org/ Openbox homepage]] ~[[http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=605607 How to disable/config alt-click-move in OpenBox (handy for Inkscape)]] ~[[https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=119020 Script for Window tiling in openbox (archlinux.org)]] ---- ==Categories== CategoryGUI CategorySoftware
