CustomisationCustomisationPosted May 22, 2005 9:46 UTC (Sun) by farnz (guest, #17727)In reply to: Customisation by TwoTimeGrime Parent article: Outlook vs Evolution vs Kontact: an e-mail client comparison (opensourceversus) KDE 3.4's kwin window manager gets you part of the way there; in KControl, under Desktop, there's an option pane "Window Behaviour". In the "Moving" tab, there's an option "Allow moving and resizing of maximized windows". Uncheck this, and maximized windows can't be moved or resized. It also gets rid of the borders.

Customisation Posted May 22, 2005 16:10 UTC (Sun) by TwoTimeGrime (guest, #11688) [Link] Awesome! Thanks for the tip. That's the push I needed to install KDE 3.4. I've been using KDE 3.3 under Debian at work because that's what Debian came with. There were some unofficial KDE 3.4 files but I had been afraid to install them. I guess I'll risk it now. :-D

Customisation Posted May 23, 2005 14:55 UTC (Mon) by TwoTimeGrime (guest, #11688) [Link] Thank you so much. I just installed KDE 3.4 and now maximized windows do *exactly* what I want. The close, minimize, and maximize buttons also go right to the edge of the screen which means I can just whip the pointer to the top right and click to close. Before it took a lot more time and coordination to click the close button.
I'm one step closer to moving 100% to Linux.
