howto make windows only show a border
You need to edit ~/.fluxbox/apps while not running fluxbox. So exit and open this file. Add following lines to your file:
[app] (.*)
[Deco] {BORDER}
[end]
Now save and start fluxbox again. All apps will show ONLY a border now (if the styles uses one). You can also change the pixelwidth and the color of the border.
Either do it globally using the overlay file or separately for every single style.
In both cases you need to add two lines to the appropriate file:
window.borderWidth: <int> window.borderColor: color (e.g. #009900, black, rgb:00/64/00)
The meaning should be quite obvious, the integer defines the width for the border in pixel, and the color is the actual color of the border.
Just make sure that if you put this in the single style file, both lines will need to be the last lines in the style file. By doing this you can be sure that your settings will be used so you don't need to comment out anything and you can keep the original style settings in case you want to use them again.
howto make windows only show a border and tabs
Since external tabs returned in fluxbox 1.0rc you can use them the common way (tabs sit on a full decorated window) or the special way. Following the guidelines from the above set up, you can configure your ~/.fluxbox/apps file like this:
[app] (.*)
[Deco] {TAB}
[end]
You will get a window with border (as described above) but with a nice tab attached as set in the "tab" section of the rootmenu.
