[oS-EN] Resizing a window in XFCE
Hi, On some of my computers I have a problem: the thresold for picking an edge of the window to resize it (using XFCE) is so narrow that I have to keep moving the mouse for 20 seconds till I manage to get hold of it. First the horizontal, then the vertical. Forget about grabbing the corner. Where can I adjust it? Not in mouse settings. :-? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from Elesar, using openSUSE Leap 15.3)

Found it. It is the border size, so I just changed my theme to "cruxish" in Window Manager settings. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from Elesar, using openSUSE Leap 15.3)

On my system, which is actually LXDE rather than XFCE but I don't expect it makes much difference, it is a resource called border.width in the file /usr/share/themes/Orang/openbox-3/themerc (Orang is the name of the theme I use, as modified to do what I want). I'm not aware of a GUI for it; I use gvim to edit it.
