KNOPPIX with LXDE won't open windows in center of screen after tweaks.
Hi.
I have KNOPPIX (KNOPPIX_V8.1-2017-09-05-EN.iso) with LXDE on a usb pen drive and it won't open windows in the center of the screen after these tweaks. I edited both '~/.config/openbox/rc.xml' & '~/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml' like so: Code:
<application type="normal"> The KNOPPIX live ISO remembers settings such as personal files, WiFi login key, etc. so the code above remains on reboot - it just don't do anything. |
so where is it going, or is it not having any effect on it at all?
is it between these tags Code:

the ability may have been removed, hindered by another process, or rewritten to use a different method of writing it in the interpretation. Like center is interpreted. In the background it has to be processed, get screen height and width preform the math on it to get center of screen then apply more math to it to position the window using its height width to ascertain the x y coords to place the window on the center of the screen which are all variables.
