Tint2 - App Won't Restore from Taskbar


Archlabs, Openbox, Tint2 configured for floating panel

When I minimize an open app, that app's icon appears in the Taskbar.
Neither left click or right click on that icon will restore the app.
When I relaunch the app from the Launcher it appears to one side at slightly less than 1/2 size. I can then restore it to full size with either the app's own restore button or with my keybind (S+PgUp).

I was configuring Tint2 yesterday and obviously set up some sort of conflicting combination. Any clues?

You can configure tint2 to not react to mouse clicks in that manner.
Settings are in the Task section.
As an example that DOES react to mouse clicks:
Code:
mouse_left = toggle_iconify
mouse_middle = close
mouse_right = toggle_iconify
mouse_scroll_up = prev_task
mouse_scroll_down = next_task

Sorry, I did not understand that.

Thank you! That did it. The options listed aren't entirely clear: one of them says "restore maximize" and I had selected that one. In fact, as you pointed out, the correct one is "toggle".
