Re: Any plans on updating LX [panel/start] menu design?
I wanted to avoid using two desktop components side-by-side, but if that's the only way to get what I'm asking, then I'd rather just ditch Lubuntu all together. There's no point for me to use XFCE in Lubuntu (even though it's allowed). It feels like I'm making light of the work that the folks contr...

File for styling the menu component?
I'm wondering if there's a specific file that handles the definition of style rules for the menu component of the LXPanel. After snooping around, it's become apparent to me that the menu configuration uses XML. From that stand point, and knowing that CSS can be applied, can I assume that there's som...

Re: Any plans on updating LX [panel/start] menu design?
Rufwoof, sounds like you have a nice system. This is what is nice about Openbox. Just about anyone can design his own desktop. You people new to openbox, don't let the commentary fool you. It is much easier for a literate person to configure with words in a text than click some buttons offered by a...

Re: Any plans on updating LX [panel/start] menu design?
Is there any way I can replace this "component" or at least make it more functional? LXDE is pretty separated, lxappearance, lxinput, lxpanel ...etc can all be run individually on top of openbox ... or not. If you switched out lxpanel for Xfce's panel then that has a whisker menu choice ....

Re: Any plans on updating LX [panel/start] menu design?
Try creating a openbox menu with just icons seppalta . For a single layer it looks quite nice - a column of icons to choose from. When there are further layers/sub menus ... not so good as you have a arrow pointer to the sub menu alongside the column of icons. I have the menu pop up by default when...

Re: Any plans on updating LX menu design?
You can expand and/or upgrade the Openbox menu, which is present in lxde, to do or to be just about anything - similarly if you just replace lxpanel with its parent, fbpanel. See the menu and and panel links: http://lxlinux.com/#10 , and especially Section 9 images: http://lxlinux.com/#9 . Here is ...

Any plans on updating LX [panel/start] menu design?
Hello, I've posted this question on a number of related forums but have not received adequate feedback. My main concern with LXDE—as of right now—is the lacking panel menu or "start menu", as some would call it. It severely lacks a lot of attributes and standard styling that almost every o...
