Greetz all,

I've released Alpha4 and thought you might like to know about it :)

Here's what the release says:

Alpha4 is out, following closely on the heels of Alpha3. Upgrading here is
going to be a bit of a pain.. :)

Alpha4 includes the new theme engine changes which are detailed in the docs:
http://icculus.org/openbox/docs.php?page=config.html#themes

The included "om4ob" theme from miklos is a pretty complete example of how to
use new features in the theme engine.

Alpha4 also includes new resize areas in the top corners of the window frames.
The bindings to use them are in the default rc3 file, but since you most
likely all have a customized one, you can add the following to your mouse
bindings to make them work:

  <context name="tlcorner">
    <mousebind button="Left" action="drag">
      <action name="resize"/>
    </mousebind>
    <mousebind button="Left" action="press">
      <action name="focus"/>
    </mousebind>
  </context>
  <context name="trcorner">
    <mousebind button="Left" action="drag">
      <action name="resize"/>
    </mousebind>
    <mousebind button="Left" action="press">
      <action name="focus"/>
    </mousebind>
  </context>

Alpha4 also comes with a couple more fixes for bugs which were turned up.

You can grab Alpha4 from the usual place:
