If a theme has no side-borders, you can't focus them to resize. So yes, it's a design decision. > 8) I used to get a list of active windows with alt+middle mouse button, > but I see e17 has been neutered to only work with the first button. > Is there a way (another theme?) to use all 3 mouse buttons again? e17 has not been "neutered", it in fact is much more powerful in this. There is a fully configurable mouse button configuration (called "Mouse Buttons"), where you can chose every single behavior for any mouse-button and any modifier. There are also sane defaults which configure all 3 usually available main buttons including another set with the Alt modifier. > Thanks, > Marc > -- > "A mouse is a device used to point at the xterm you want to type in" - A.S.R. > Microsoft is to operating systems .... > .... what McDonalds is to gourmet cooking > Home page: http://marc.merlins.org/ > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning > Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing > also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. > http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ > _______________________________________________ > enlightenment-users mailing list > enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
