Hi!
I'm new to lxde and I have a problem with calling the run-dialogue via alt+f2.
I am using compiz or openbox as window manager and in both it should be configured that alt+f2 calls the run dialogue (i'm not sure about openbox). It works in gnome and xfce but won't work in lxde -- any ideas?
alt+f2 for run-dialogue
Re: alt+f2 for run-dialogue
Hi
LXDE uses Openbox by default. And it's set in your ~/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml. It should work with Openbox as Windowmanager and LXPanel as your Panel. Otherwise please add under the comment in your ~/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml.

Re: alt+f2 for run-dialogue
Thx - that wasn't the solution for compiz but with that I was able to make it work.
If one uses compiz he has to open the Advanced Desktop Effects Settings in Preferences.
Then General Options -> Key Bindings and disable alt+f2 for "run"
open in General Options-> Commands and add there for one of the commands "lxpanelctl run" (w/out "; e.g. command 0), then assign in the same tab in Key Bindings alt+f2 for the command (e.g. command 0) and then it works in compiz, too
