Philip,

You cannot move windows that have no border nor titlebar. This is not a
bug, it's a feature ;-) (This is to prevent people from moving full
screenwindows, for example, such as Nautilus fake root window)

The best would be to set a thin border, like borderwidth 3.

Cheers,
Olivier.

I uninstalled my previous tar install so I didn't have two versions setting around and went ahead and setup a new ~/.xfce dir.  (It doesn't take long for me to reconfigure) Started xfce (GDM) and everything is great!...?

(I can't live without this) As long as the BorderWidth is at least 1 it works, but not with no border at all.  Just a note this worked fine in 3.8.14c (I believe that was my last version).

And that is saying a lot as I am probably more anti-taskbar than Joe!  I have also not tried making a package from the strait CVS to see if these issues are still there.  If no other help is offered I will try this tonight.
