Ubuntu

Windows borders are too narrow

Asked by Traz

My mouse sensitivity is very high and it's difficult to click windows borders.

Is there any way to widen them?

As far as I am aware, you cannot change the customize the borders without having to make a new theme. However you can download the emerald theme manager and use that to change the border.

With Emerald:
Edit theme->Frame/Shadows and on the right side you can change any sides width.
Also you can change the title bar width under Edit theme->titlebar on the right side.

I assume you like to keep you sensitivity and acceleration high, so you wouldn't consider lowering either.

Hope this helps!

You can also use Alt-Middle mouse button and drag on a window to resize it. That completely frees you from pointing at the window border.

Can you help with this problem?
