> > There has been some progress! I tried running openbox-session instead of openbox but had some problems so I restored openbox in .xsession. The windows now have resistance at the monitor edge and when windows overlap. This is programmable in rc.xml so we can say openbox knows what size the monitor is and the problem is in the openbox routines that decide where to park a minimized icon. Any ideas?<br>
