Just annotations of little "how to's", so I know I can find how to do something I've already done when I need to do it again, in case I don't remember anymore, which is not unlikely. Hopefully they can be useful to others, but I can't guarantee that it will work, or that it won't even make things worse.
Openbox sometimes requires a "triple click" for what one would expect to achieve with a double click
Tags double click, openbox, triple click
Was just randomly trying to see if you could have different mouse-bindings association for double and single click on the same context, and decided to web-search a bit after it failed, "maybe there's some syntax trick or something," I thought.
Instead I found an old post in this forum saying that, in completely different circumstances (out of window-management associations, seems to me), Openbox requires a triple click where other/actual DEs would require a double one.
While that never happened to me, double click stuff worked fine for anything else in openbox, I found out that the mouse-binding for double-click in a context where there's also a single-click binding can be activated with a triple click.
I guess that the bindings themselves may specifically render each other null in some cases, but in my case it would be a single click to drag/move without holding, and a double click to maximize on the title bar. I had tried years and years ago, in fact the binding was just commented on rc.xml. I un-commented it and found that the triple click maximizes it.
