How I can set-up LXTerminal in Lubuntu to start maximized?
Solution 1
OBApps work for me. GUI for edit OpenBox options. Official page.
Solution 2
For Ubuntu 12.04:
Inside the applications block in /home/(your username)/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml, add the following block and it will work:
<applications>
<application name="lxterminal">
<maximized>yes</maximized>
</application>
</applications>
Similarly, if you want to minimize it, use iconic tab and set to "no".
If you want it full screen, there is also the aptly named fullscreen tag you can use exactly as the maximized tag example above.

When I push CTRL + ALT + T I want see my default
LXTerminal
in Lubuntu 13.04 in full size (not like F11). I know that I can push CTRL + ALT + F1 and get tty-terminal - it good for some situations, but sometimes I need, for example, copy text from/to terminal.I found that I can bind in
.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml
commandlxterminal --geometry=85x27
- its very good, but sometimes I need configure not one PC with Lubuntu - and all this PC may be with anothers screen resolution. Andlxterminal --geometry=85x27
look little as not good as, like LXTerminal in full screen.-

Brian about 9 yearsYou are going to need to install openbox, not just create the folder. Found this with a quick google search, haven't tried it though as I'm not a Xubuntu user myself: dottech.org/129812/how-to-install-openbox-xubuntu-linux

rbaleksandar over 8 yearsThere is not even a predefined hotkey to do that. Yet another proof added to the pile of "LXDE is lightweight because it lacks even basic functionality". Pretty sad...
