X and Fluxbox :: Autohide not working in jwm



As danielp noted in

There are some problems with the system tray in jwm.  It lays over any window that extends to the bottom of the screen (and probably top, if you move the tray to the top).

I went to joewing's site about jwm and the only control I could find is autohide which defaults to false.

If I add autohide to the <Tray ... > tag in the .jwmrc-tray file, the tray just doesn't autohide, it is GONE.  Moving the mouse to the bottom of the screen does not bring it up.  autohide=true results in the same behaviour.

Now I WANT the tray.  I am use to such beasts.  But I either want it to go away when not needed, or to be included in the screen available calculation so that when programs like dillo start, their bottom edge is at the top of the tray.

So anyone have tips?  I would go ask on the jwm list, but what version do I say we are running in DSL 4.2.1?

Try adding this in the tray attributes tag. It's always worked for me:

autohide="true"

Edit: It still works for me. Just tried it. Have video to prove it.

2.0

autohide="true"

alright!!!

I had left off the quotes around true when I tried this...

Now it works like WinDOZE with autohide, at least.

It would be nice to have the option of autosize an app to just about the tray.  Like Gnome and WindDOZE....

But as I think about it, there is not that much vertical realestate on my Libretto....

Define what you mean by autosize.
