In the "look and fell" GUI, there is a tab "window border" which itself has a tabbed pane one tab of which is the theme , the others called Title bar and Misc allow you to set just about every detail EXCEPT the window border.
That's how it is.

Re: setting window frame width
I will look at the other themes. I don't usually get too interested in stuff like theme tweeking but having a usable border is not something that can be written off as eye-candy. I tend to work from command line but it seemed odd that there exists a "look and feel" GUI tool which includes ...

Re: setting window frame width
belated thanks, I've just had time to look at this. I don't find the rc.xml file you indicated. In ~/.config/xfce4/mcs_settings/xfwm4.xml , I find <option name="Xfwm/ThemeName" type="string" value="Default"/> Right, not much help. From the GUI I worked out I was useing ...

setting window frame width
Hi, I really like working with LXDE but the one thing that is a constant problem is the window border width which is way too small to catch with the precision of a touchpad on a laptop. ( It's fine on my desktop system with a real mouse ). I can't find any way in the various GUI tools to alter this....

Tapping gone , again.
Hi, I have a laptop running Fedora 26 LXDE spin and since synaptics went out of fashion the mouse tapping did not work. I was able to restore this functionality by adding a short file to xorg.conf.d adding a secion for libinput to enable tapping: Option "Tapping" "1" I now have a...

Re: automount FM options
yes, like that.
If I configure PCman to display the tree, next time I plug in a device it has forgotten all about it and shows me the damned "places". I have to waste time reconfiguring all over again.

Re: automount FM options
Here is what the developer posted in 2012: "xfe can mount or unmount disks, but it's only *manually*, assuming you have all the stuff in your fstab file." See https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2096007 for more about his statement. Why do you prefer xfe to pcmanfm? Xfe is very heav...

Re: automount FM options
It seems that it is PCman volume management which is doing this is it? if so, i suspect it is hardcoded to open pcmanfm as a filemanager. but don't take my word for it. i don't think that xfe offers that sort of daemon mode. it's possible to write a udev rule that gets executed whenever you insert ...

automount FM options
Hi,
I have installed XFE as filemanager but always get PCmanFM when I plug in a USB device.
It seems that it is PCman volume management which is doing this and is easy to disactivate but is there a way to get xfe to open when a device is plugged?
TIA.
