[Feature request] Window buttons and mouse click behaviors
Status:
RESOLVED: MOVED
Product:
Xfce4-panel
Component:
Window Buttons

Comments

Description George Ioakeimidis 2017-09-04 13:42:38 CEST
Right now the Window buttons are used to be:

"left click" to open a window if closed or show at top if already open and "middle click" to minimize the window if already open

I would like to request to change the behavior of mouse clicks into

LEFT CLICK
* If window already open and on top -> Minimize window
* If window already open and not on top   -> Show on top
* If window is minimized -> Show window

MIDDLE CLICK
* Open a new instance (new window)

[ I have Arch Linux (Antergos) and Xfce 4.12 ( xfce4-panel 4.12.1 ) ]
