X and Fluxbox :: icontool cant change to double click



hello from germany...

i use dsl 3.1 via hd install (no frugal). i cant set the double click via icontool, everytime i try this and click on "ok", it is set. but when i start icontool again, the state is set back to single click. i think this is a problem with the file permissions. where are these settings stored ? can i set them manualy ?

another related thing:
is it possible to set xdesktop so, that there is a leftmargin like 7 pixels or so ?

The single-click action is hardcoded into icontool.lua....it is not retrieved from xtdeskrc when you start the tool. If you close the tool without pressing "ok" it should keep the double-click action.

If you want to keep double-click active automatically, you'll need to edit /usr/local/bin/icontool.lua.

Remove lines 57 & 58:
singleClickBtn.value = 1
clickValue = 0

Add this just below the " doubleClickBtn = Light_Button" line:
doubleClickBtn.value = 1
clickValue = 500

"500" can be whatever you want as the double-click interval.

I don't know enough about xtdesktop to answer your other question.

i have found a solution: when i go into the dir /home/dsl/.xdesk...  there is a file called xdeskrc (i think this was the right name)... there i can set interval to 500 and i have doubleclick automaticly after every boot...

yout interval 500 pointed me to this direction...
