Hey, all!

I just updated flux to 0.9.6_pre9 and all of a sudden, I can't get tabs on my windows. There isn't even a menu item to enable/disable, or to set the location. I checked my ~/.fluxbox/init and tabs are enabled. For the heck of it, here is my init file:

Code:

session.screen0.slit.placement:   TopCenter

Any ideas? :?: [/code]

i know it dev they changed the menu/configuration a bit, i dont see options for it now, but you can mouse3 (drag) a window to another one to enable the tabs. I tried last night for the first time and it rocks. So, with your middle mouse button (push down on scroll wheel) drag window title to another.

Thanks for the tip :D , but it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I used to be able to have my tabs on the left side of the window, positioned at the top. If I wanted to automatically add a new window to the tab group, I could just right click on the tab , then open the new app through the menu.

The above solution is good for clicking between windows, but doesn' have the functionality of the real tabs.

That's exactly the reason why I started using kahakai. No tabs but a lot nicer in other aspects.

Oh, well :roll:

I guess I'll just go back to the stable version. Transparent menus are nice, but I've really gotten used to those tabs.

Thanks again!
