    Windows Always Undecorated? [SOLVED]

    Hi!
    I would like to know whether it 'd be possible to set all the windows to "undecorate"?
    I can click on the top right of the window to switch to "un/decorate" but I would like to make it automatical for all the programs that I open
    (I like my programs take all the screen without space taken by not useful information for me)

    Thanks a lot in advance!

    EDIT : My configuration :
    Lubuntu 14.04 (LXDE as Desktop environment then)

    Which distro and desktop environment and window manager are you using?

    Okay, you need to get very familiar with lubuntu-rc.xml!
    Here is a nice link: http://pclosmag.com/html/Issues/201107/page08.html

    Basically, you'll edit the appropriate section of ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml to ensure that windows open undecorated.
    For that, you'll need to play with the lines in the <applications> section, near the very end of the file.

    Code:
        <application type="normal">
          <maximized>true</maximized>
          <decor>no</decor>
        </application>
    will open all application windows full-sized, without decoration.

    Also take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lu...dows_Maximized. That mentions a GUI-based option as well but you need to do a bit of groundwork ensuring that program's dependencies are met.
