Hey,
thanx for the quick reply.
Still about themes, i got all the plugins installed, but i don't reall get it. When i run
xfce-setting-show xfwm4
it gives me the window manager settings, with 3 tabs : Decration style, keyb and focus and misc.
I'm guessing the decoration style is the themes? I only got default in there os if this is where the themes are suppose to be then i should probably move around my themes in some other dir.
Am i correct in this or is there some tab thats suppose to be there but is missing?
Merci
A+
