  * Add ability to set the bevel strength in themes
  * Fix for focusLast with omnipresent windows

  * Allow non-interactive directional focus key bindings
  * Change how nested interactive key bindings work (it stays in the key chain,
    like chroot, until you end the interactive action)

    prevention (Fixes Tilda)
  * Send ConfigureNotify always on ConfigureRequest (Previous emacs fix
    makes this possible now)

  * Allow the use of negative numbers in per-app settings position to place a
    window relative to the right/bottom edges of your monitor (taking the
    struts (panels) into account)

  * Allow new utility windows to gain focus like normal windows
  * Add workarounds for Java Swing applications (Extra ConfigureNotify events)
  * More fixes for modal window usability (Deiconify the modal window when you
    try to focus its parent)
  * Fixes to focus tracking, especially with iconify animation
  * Changes to libobrender's API for ObConf 2.0 (RrThemeNew)

    window is focused
  * Fixes for frame decorations layout
  * Fixes for forcing window sizes to fit on the screen.  Don't resize windows
    if they are a user-specified size (USSize) or if they are non-normal
    windows.  (Fix Rox pinboard mapping across multiple monitors)

  * Fix crash when you press enter with nothing selected in the menu
  * Fix for ignoring an unmap event after restart

    (Firefox gmarks extension)
  * Update Catalan translation
  * Fix alignment of the titlebar elements when the window icon is placed to

  * Improve placement of child (transient) windows.  When their parent is
    omnipresent, open the child on the current desktop only.

    it, bring the modal child to the current desktop to focus it instead
  * Let you focus cycle to windows with a modal child on another desktop

  * Give iconified windows a faded icon in the focus cycling (Alt-Tab) dialog,
    and in the client list menus
  * Make it more difficult to select items by accident in parent menus when it
    changes direction.  Moving the mouse only selects menu entries for a few
    levels of open menus.  Mouse clicks will select menu entries further down.
  * Add Simplified Chinese translation
  * Set the current theme in the OB_THEME root property for other applications
  * Notify ksplash when we have started up if dcop is installed

  * Fix a bug introduced in .993 that prevented you from switching desktops
    and caused general mayhem

3.3.993:
  * Update for Russian translation
  * Added Dutch translation
  * Fix for choosing badly sized icons from the window for the window cycling
    dialog (and other things). (Fixes Pidgin icon)

    a direct parent, or if the parents are not all on some other desktop.
    (Fixes Pidgin and Gimp dialogs appearing on the wrong desktop)
  * Make windows fit within the available space when they are first created,
    if they are not user-positioned. (Fix xpdf making itself bigger than the
    space inside the struts, and hiding behind them).
  * Don't let child (transient) windows steal focus when the situation is
    ambiguous
  * Fix bevels and borders display in the titlebar
  * Set the _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW hint properly, when nothing is focused (This
    is the proper fix for libwnck pagers.)
  * Fallback focus immediately during iconify animation in all cases (was
    missing RevertToParent case)
  * Fix new frame elements being given 0 sizes for very small windows
  * Send iconified windows to the bottom of the focus order so you can
    Alt-Shift-Tab to get back what you just iconified. This makes things more
    predictable.
  * Show the hostname for remotely run programs in iconified titles
  * Stop focus flicker when sending windows to a desktop and following them,
    and when changing desktops with an omnipresent window focused
  * Empty desktop names in the configuration file are not used, so you can set
    a name on the second desktop without having to set one on the first
  * Make control key work for menu accelerators like it does for mouse
    clicking and hitting enter
  * Add C-A-Up/Down mouse bindings to switch desktops, similar to the
    C-A-Left/Right/Up/Down keyboard bindings

3.3.992:
  * Don't move mouse focus when the mouse is over the focus cycling dialog
  * Fixes for positioning of frame decoration elements
  * Update for Brazilian Portuguese translation
  * Improvements in how decorations respond for maximized windows. (If they
    can't be resized don't "hide" the resizing contexts)
  * Updated Italian translation
  * Added Czech translation
  * Fix for applications that do weird things with modal windows (Make sure
    you can focus cycle to them)
  * Updated Spanish translation
  * Fix for programs using the old WM-spec, and not setting unused fields to
    0 in _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW messages (Rox pinboard)
  * Fixes for default rc.xml configuration file. Updated comments and comment
    out the applications section in an xml compatible way.
  * Update for Portuguese translation
  * Fix support for window gravity (eg xterm -geometry -0+0)
  * Fix for libwnck with iconify animation (Unmap the parent of the client's
    window)
  * Force the top left corner of new windows onto the screen area, if the
    position wasn't requested by the user (Fix xpdf and others hiding their
    titlebar under a panel)
  * Fix for determining text geometry from Pango
  * Save the desktop layout and names in the session, and restore them on next
    log in.
  * The <desktop> section from the configuration file is only used for
    defaults, and so is only applied at the start of a new log-in. (Use ObConf
    1.6.2 to change the config file for these options, and have them set
    immediately, if you don't use a session manager to save them.)
  * Fix updating and crashing in the old split client list menu
  * Translate the default desktop names
  * Update Taiwanese Chinese translation
  * Less restrictions of behavior based on window type (Let you maximize
    dialogs and utility windows)

    that the user has maximized

3.3.991:
  * Added Brazilian Portuguese translation
  * Added a rough Italian translation
  * Added Estonian translation
  * Update Polish translation
  * Make focus stealing prevention a little less intrusive, especially with
    default config

  * Fixes for decorations of maximized windows
  * Fix so that clicking in the corner of a maximized window presses the button
  * Don't reload the session and reapply it when restarting
  * Fix for losing the original size of a window that mapped with maximized
    state (or on restart)
  * Let you move splash type windows
  * Fix for window placement using wrong dimensions
  * Stop xemacs ConfigureNotify storm
  * Fix bug stopping panels from moving themselves off-screen to hide
    themselves
  * Fix for GNOME/Openbox and openbox-gnome-session to use a new session name,
    because GNOME won't let you replace the window manager in the saved session
  * Don't restore session state when multiple windows have the same
    identifiers, because we can't tell them apart then (Firefox/Thunderbird)
  * Small fixes to build system to make it more reliable

    will not be pre-built with the wrong info
  * Fix pkg-config files for compiling things against Openbox libraries

3.3.990:
  * Wildcard matching for per-application (per-window) settings. Let you match
    multiple rules for a window. (Props to Mark Pustjens for code to do this.)
  * Added startup notification support to the menus and key/mouse bindings
    with <startupnotify>. It's an option for execute actions.
  * New combined client menu, accessed with
    <action name="ShowMenu"><menu>client-list-combined-menu</menu></action>
  * No menu titles - instead added separators with labels to be used as menu
    headers anywhere in menus

  * Menus dont jump around, are always placed on screen
  * Menus larger than can fit on the screen are broken into a submenu at the
    bottom titled "More..."

  * Using ()'s instead of a line separator to signify iconified windows in the
    client list menus
  * New Root context for mouse bindings
  * New "alt-tab" focus switching dialog
  * openbox-session command and log-in option which provides the autostart
    capability.
  * SCIM support in the default Openbox session launched by the
    openbox-session command
  * Many code paths made significantly faster
  * Sections of code rewritten to be more reliable, such as session
    save/restore and input focus handling
  * Handle the X server's clock going backwards, without locking up. Sometimes
    the server can still lock up though, it is not recommended to do this!
  * Better handling of window types such as docks, utility windows, tool bar
    windows. Clicking to focus these windows is done more intelligently.  Dock
    windows no longer get focus when you click them, so that you don't have
    focus flickering when you use a dock window with a taskbar.
  * Better language support through Pango, which is now mandatory, and the
    code for Pango has been greatly improved and optimized.
  * Support for windows that use true 32-bit transparency
  * Resize grips (with mouse binding contexts) for the top, left, and right of
    the window frame
  * Smarter about keeping windows on the screen without invading user's
    capabilities
  * Add MoveFromEdge* actions corresponding to MoveToEdge* but aligns far
    edges instead of near edges, so if you have two overlapping windows you
    can easily put them side by side.
  * Better choice of mouse cursors for startup notification
  * Focus stealing prevention
  * Improve window placement across multiple Xinerama monitors
  * Support 8-bit truecolor visuals (such as in vncserver)
  * Better, more friendly support for omnipresent windows
  * Full support for EWMH 1.4-draft2
  * Iconify/restore animation !
  * Improved support for running openbox with multiple screens (non-xinerama)
    - won't steal focus from other screens, and let you focus a screen by
    clicking on the desktop (root window).
  * Support for more cursors through XCursor, means that startup notification
    can use a pointer+watch cursor if you are using an XCursor theme
  * Fully maximize terminal windows (and any resized-by-increment window)
  * Show the hostname of clients running on remote computers in the titlebar
  * Add <panels> and <desktop> options to NextWindow, PreviousWindow,
    DirectionalFocusNorth etc..
  * Synchronize resizing with the application when possible
  * Smarter subdivision of windows into 9 sections for resizing
  * Set default icon on windows so applications can agree on an icon
  * Better support for programs that are on more than one desktop
    (multiple firefox windows for example) - move to the desktop when you're
    using the application and it opens a window on another desktop.
  * Chrooted key chains, and key quoting through chroots
  * New BreakChroot action to break out of the current chroot
  * New keychains popup, to show where you are in a keychain
  * Improved show-desktop mode. When you open a new window, the old windows
    are not all restored
  * Add <allDesktops> option to NextWindow and PreviousWindow. The desktop
    name will be shown in the focus cycling popup
  * Dynamically size the window and desktop dialogs. Desktop layouts that
    aren't horizontal look better in the desktop cycling dialog.
  * Support for legacy fullscreen applications (that don't use EWMH) such as
    VLC
  * Session support for old clients that do not use the session management
    protocol
  * Desktop setup is only changed on startup, so as to not overwrite settings
    from other apps like pagers
  * Take advantage of ksmserver (KDE Session Manager) features
  * KDE/Openbox and GNOME/Openbox options for display manager GDM/KDM. Use
    openbox-gnome-session and openbox-kde-session to run a GNOME or KDE
    session with Openbox as the window manager.
  * Titlebar buttons autohide when hiding won't move other buttons (removed
    the hideDisabled option from config file)
  * Support user time window hint, which is good for laptops power usage
  * When legacy windows raise themselves, interpreate as wanting to be
    activated. Makes Firefox more pleasant.
  * Don't show handles on windows that cant resize for more extreme visual
    minimalism
  * Let you move maximized windows between Xinerama monitors
  * Improve application awareness of focus, e.g. Kopete and Firefox, so they
    know when they are or aren't focused, and which window in their
    application is focused
  * Improvements in the distributed themes
  * Add new Clearlooks and Clearlooks-Olive themes by John McKnight
  * Fonts are no longer loaded from theme. They are loaded from the rc.xml
    config file. Font shadow settings are still loaded from the theme though.
    5 fonts to be set: ActiveWindow InactiveWindow, MenuHeader, MenuItem and
    OnScreenDisplay
  * Distributed theme names have been renamed with Capitalization
  * menu.items.activedisabled.text.color

    you didnt mean to)
  * window.active.border.color   (note that globbing might set these
    properties when you didnt mean to)
  * window.inactive.border.color   (note that globbing might set these
    properties when you didnt mean to)
  * menu.border.width

    (button masks) will be centered
  * Default titlebar button icons (as xbms) installed to /usr/share/doc/openbox
  * New mouse binding contexts Left, Right, TLCorner, TRCorner and Top. These
    need bindings in config file to be useful. Also new context Bottom which
    is synonym for Handle.
  * W is no longer hard coded to Mod4. It is now a shortcut for Super, which
    is usually bound to Mod4. xmodmap will show your mapping.
  * The per-app setting <head> has been renamed to <monitor>
  * Can use "default" for anything in per-app settings
  * Removed <edges_hit_layers_below> option from config file

3.3.1:
  * Fix panels getting a border with keepBorder turned on.
  * Fix a crash in mirrorhorizontal when drawing a surface with width 1.

3.3:
  * Add a showDelay option for the dock.
  * Fixed onscreen-keeping code which broke a bit in -rc2.
  * Fix incorrect handling of window properties on 64 bit arches.
  * Fix pixelsize being the same as size for pango, now it is correct.
  * Fix drawing of icons taller than wide, eg gimp.
  * Add a 'mirrorhorizontal' gradient, like horizontal but mirrored in the
    center and 'splitvertical' which is like vertical but nonlinear in a fancy
    way.
  * Translations for de, hr and zh_TW added.
  * Add initial per-app settings support.
  * Fix some outstanding issues with 64-bit support.
  * Add an optional delay for displaying submenus so you can move the mouse
    over some entries without flashing each submenu.
  * Plug some minor memleaks and fix minor bugs.
  * Changed algorithm for downscaling window icons.
  * New themes!
  * Disable support for libstartup-notification by default, it doesn't seem
    to work well.
  * Allow disabling of duplicate window numbering by option titleNumber in
    theme section.
  * Add moverelative and resizerelative actions.
  * Option middle for menus that make submenus be centered instead of aligned
    by the top edge to the parent entry.
  * Fix transient (ie dialog) windows being placed offscreen if the parent
    is close to the edge of the screen.

3.3-rc2:
  * Fixed some typos and errors in rc.xsd
  * Add the noStrut option to the dock (to allow maximizing windows over it),
    useful when it is not in the above layer.
  * Fix transparent terminals not updating when using ToggleDecor.
  * Yet more poking at the onscreen-keeping code, should now do the right
    thing always.
  * Add an option to hide disabled buttons instead of showing them as disabled.
  * Hopefully fixed all the remaining pango issues. The new 1.10 release also
    fixes shadows again.
  * I think the lib linking in Makefile.am is right now, please tell me if it
    isn't.
  * Added a finnish translation and some minor updates to others.
  * Fixed configure.ac so --enable-pango doesn't disable pango support or the
    other way around, make enabled be default to get some extra testing.

3.3-rc1:
  * Poked around a bit in the code that keeps windows onscreen, if you
    are using xinerama, please let me know if things are better/worse/same.
  * Add support for pango, disabled by default due to a bug in pango 1.8 that
    breaks shadows, it works fine with 1.6.x though. Poke the pango developers
    here http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=169622 if you want this
    to be fixed.
  * Made edge resist and Send/MoveToEdge not hit windows at layers below
    the current one, add option to disable this behaviour.
  * Fixed directional focus not getting trapped in omnipresent windows
  * Fixed focus actions when bound to the mouse, normal focus cycle is always
    linear and directional focus is totally disabled, it makes no sense
    anyway, just move the mouse.
  * Added an option for the raise/lower/raiselower/unshaderaise/shadelower
    options called group that lets you bind stuff to raise/lower the whole
    window group. <action name="raise"><group>yes</group></action>
  * Add various new actions. I haven't updated the web docs yet, but I think
    I managed to get all of them listed in rc.xsd.
  * Bugs 1783, 1812, 1863, 1905, 2005, 1957 fixed.
  * Some translations added. (ca, no, pl, ru, fr)

3.2:
  * Added spanish and swedish translations
  * Changed "Unnamed Desktop" to "Desktop n" where n is the actual
    number of the desktop
  * Hopefully no more of the hanging X totally bug
  * the fullscreen property now overrides aspect hints, all programs i've
    tried that use it (mplayer and tvtime) handle the aspect internally
    anyway, this just makes sure you have black borders all the way to the
    edge. If this breaks anything for you, let me know.
  * Added M as an alias for Mod3 in the same manner that W is an alias for Mod4
  * Added probably too many options and actions
    * ToggleDockAutohide to toggle the autohide option at runtime,
      doesn't save it to the config
    * keepBorder option to set if you want the 1-pixel border when you
      toggleDecorations
    * added popupShow and popupPosition to control where and when the
      move/resize-popup is shown, these go in the resize section of the config
      popupPosition can be Top or Center, popupShow can be Always, Never or
      Nonpixel (this is the default).
    * Added the xorStyle option to change the behaviour of menus along the bottom
      edge, note that the default is true
    * warpPointer option in the menu section to control if the mouse cursor is
      to be warped by openbox when the menu moves to keep on screen to keep the
      cursor in the same place relative to the menu. (I think i got that right)
    * Added back the focusLast option (this controls what happens when you
      change desktops and have followMouse on)
    * Added an option to set which desktop to start on when you start openbox,
      firstdesk, for example you might like to set it to 5 if you have a 3x3
      grid to start in the middle.
  * I think that was everything, have fun

        curerntly around) will no longer be kept always on top. You can set the
        ABOVE state yourself by using the client menu (Alt-RightClick in the
        default bindings) and selecting the Always on top Layer
        * Closed bug #907 (window focus is not properly indicated)

        * No longer iconify fullscreen windows when they lose focus (Closes

        * Added the placement-policy option to select if windows are placed
        under the mouse pointer
