@pp4mnklinux :-

You've rather "lost me" here. I don't see how I could have 'helped' with this one.......'cos I've never used FluxBox in my life!

You sure you're not getting me confused with somebody else?

Mike. :o

FbBox isn't fluxbox, it's Openbox with FbPanel. This was an alternate environment produced in .pet and .sfs formats. These were created by @radky. I haven't used it for some time so can't advise how to do what is being asked. Maybe radky can offer a suggestion.

Hi pp4mnklinux, you were almost right.
Unlike MikeWalsh, I had used FbBox. However, like MikeWalsh I also had no recollection of advising you about it. And it didn't seem likely as I don't use Keyboard shortcuts which would require me to remember them. But as I can't remember what I posted last week I had to admit the possibility. So I ran https://rockedge.org/psearch/ and plugged in the search terms "FbBox shortcuts" and found:

https://oldforum.puppylinux.com/viewtop ... 1#p1009441

The answer there reflects a quarter century of legal practice: (1) first clearly state that you don't know what you're talking about :thumbup: and then (2) hazard a guess. :lol:

There is an info icon at the task bar, where appears info about HOTKEYS.

How can I modify them? ( I want to use an specific key to start my default browser ..instead winkey+B)

Where is the file I must modify?
Hi pp4mnklinux,

The hotkey text file is here:

/usr/local/FbBox/hotkeys-fbbox

---

The hotkey functions are set here:

/root/.config/openbox/rc.xml

---

The keybindings to run applications start on line 348 of /root/.config/openbox/rc.xml

Currently, the hotkey (W-b) for launching the defaultbrowser is set on line 411 as follows:
CODE: SELECT ALL

<keybind key="W-b"><action name="Execute"><command>defaultbrowser</command></action></keybind>
Be careful you do not choose a key combination that is already used for another hotkey (current keybindings start on line 195 of /root/.config/openbox/rc.xml).

After modifying the hotkey, you can select the "Reload openbox" option from the desktop Right-click menu, or simply restart X.

Good luck! :)
