Moving a window


Since installing Zenwalk-7.0 I cant grab a window and move it around the desktop. Any ideas on this? I used to 'double click' with the mousepad and drag the window around. Perhaps theres some way to configure this.

Have you tried holding the Alt key while clicking and dragging?

If the window is maximized it won't work. If you can see the top window title bar and click on the "restore" button you may be able to move it around then.

It could be that you need to change the window behavior setting. Change it so when you double-click on the title bar it flips between maximize and restore. When it is in the restore mode you can grab the title bar and drag the window around.
