mouse hotkey + move window


Hi. I've got Slack-current (current as of this morning), and i'm using xfce currently. In xfce (and kde), alt + left mouse button + mouse movement moves the entire window. I need to turn this off, as that seriously hampers with the standard controls in maya (instead of tumbling the view, it moves the whole window). Can anyone point me in the right direction of where to turn off this hotkey? I didn't find anything in the xfce config wizard....

thanks.

Go to the control center> desktop> window behavior: and then click on the 'actions' tab. At the very bottom theres a 'inner windows title bar and frame' area Set the first one, 'modifier key' to alt. Set the others to 'nothing'
That should work ")

Control center trick works only for kde of course
I can not use photoshop in xfce, because I can not turn this Alt+click mouse.

Has anyone found the solution for XFCE not kde?
May be some config file?

Regards.
Andrey

I figured out. The answer for XFCE is in the faq at www.xfce.org

Create xfwm4rc in HOME/.config/xfce4/xfwm4
add into the file:
easy_click=false

Enjoy alt+ left mouse clisk in your app.
Andrey.
