in your style you will find a line that begins with this rootCommand: Then following that would be the bsetroot portion. Something like bsetroot -full c:\blackbox\backgrounds\picture.jpg other options for an image are -center -tile -full It can also generate a wall for you.. thats a little more complicated then a simple picture.. so ill save it until you ask specifically for that. Hope on irc.freenode.net and ask questiosn there.. or in the forums available here link

I switched over to Linux/Fluxbox a while back, and I've had almost zero problems migrating styles. (Sometimes I have to add a few things that are flux specific.) Unfortunately, this new version just adds all the features they should have had for a year or two now. Hopefully it will be the start of something better!

I am sure the developers could handle both syntaxes if/when it becomes an issue... ;)

I'm sure it does this but future Blackbox WM styles will need to be editied to work on BB4Win or Fluxbox and others for that matter. Why did they do that?

perhaps its still backwards compatible though.. maybe it has the ability to recognise the new definitions but will honour the old if they are present instead just a thought.. what do i know :)

Some style definitions have changed as well : .justify = .alignment, menu.hilite = menu.active. It appears 100% compatibility will be broke

Interesting. seeing as bb4win is a bb 4 windows clone. what are we going to do about introducing these new features? :)

Hello chatters! I just found this wonderful software called xoblite and installed it. I am very surprised that it is still developed as every other place around here seems to be dead. If you're reading this, please help me figure out how to set the clock to 12hr, and how to run a @Script from the menu. The docs say it is possible, but do not elaborate.

welcome
