[Bug 1056978] Re: Resizing windows by grabbing window borders is difficult
The Greybird-accessibility theme is indeed the recommended way if you wish to use Greybird with thicker borders. The accessibility theme is not 100% complete and might be slightly outdated but should provide what is needed to workaround this bug. (If you wish to help with the accessibility theme, feel free to be in touch with the Xubuntu team.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1056978 Title: Resizing windows by grabbing window borders is difficult To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfwm4/+bug/1056978/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I assume that the "Greybird" window manager theme will not be tweaked, so using "Greybird-accessibility" by default in Xubuntu sounds like the best option.

[Bug 1056978] Re: Resizing windows by grabbing window borders is difficult
I understand that the compositor can't be used to provide a solution, so then in my opinion the border size for Xubuntu's default theme should be increased. Even the "Default" xfce theme (which seems to have 2 or 3 pixel borders) is so much of an improvement. As it stands, use of a single-pixel border basically forces the use of Alt-Right Click resizing or menu options and these methods aren't obvious to new users. Rather than making this basic function more difficult by default, I think that those who prefer the aesthetic of a single-pixel border should instead be required to make a change of theme to suit their preference. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1056978 Title: Resizing windows by grabbing window borders is difficult To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfwm4/+bug/1056978/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Say I want to widen or narrow a window by left-clicking and dragging on a vertical side border of a window. The valid area I need to hit with the mouse click is so thin that this is very difficult. Now, I usually do Alt - Right click to adjust window size. However, if it is supposed to be possible to widen or narrow a window by left- clicking on a side borders, I think the valid area needs to wider. It seems like it is just one pixel or something now.
