OpenBox has no own panel. That is why it is often used together with lxpanel, but of cause any panel would do.

Keyboard shortcuts to maximize windows #

To maximize windows with Super+X horizontally and Super+C vertically this configuration can be used:

<!-- ~/.config/openbox/rc.conf" -->

<keybind key="W-X">
  <action name="ToggleMaximize">
    <direction>horizontal</direction>
  </action>
</keybind>
<keybind key="W-C">
  <action name="ToggleMaximize">
    <direction>vertical</direction>
  </action>
</keybind>
