Re: Happy 10th Year Anniversary--a user thread

Happy Anniversary to everyone and thank you to everyone involved in making MX what it is today. :cool: I still have MX-14 on cd here somewhere. I've been using MX most of the time since those days. Distro hopped a couple of times since then but there was always something that either wouldn't work, o...

Re: black screen after awhile [Solved]

What does it show on the "Plugged in" screen's settings in the Power Manager? Your pic in the first post shows the "On battery" settings I imagine leaving it switched on for long periods it's running while plugged into mains power? If not already set, perhaps try setting "Bl...

Re: MX-23.1 Screenshooter Not Keeping Saved Location [Solved]

Seems after further investigation the number at the end of the filename is relevant to the launcher number of a particular panel. With a newly created panel the 4th launcher put on it was the screenshooter launcher. Changing any of it's settings results in a file named ~/.config/xfce4/panel/screensh...

Re: deleting files from removable media

https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?p=486001#p486001 Custom action that shows in Thunar's right click menu for deleting files immediately without confirmation, which I still use most of the time. Gotta be careful with it, one wrong click can cause some real issues as you watch things you wanted ...

Re: MX-23.1 Screenshooter Not Keeping Saved Location [Solved]

Solved.
Changing the location to Desktop in the file ~/.config/xfce4/panel/screenshooter-20.rc on the MX23 laptop solves the issue.

Re: MX-23.1 Screenshooter Not Keeping Saved Location [Solved]

I haven't followed real close, and I'm on MX-21.3 Xfce, not 23.1, but for me when using xfce4-screenshooter via the keyboard "prt sc" key, it does remember the last folder used and changes automatically in that file after I take a screenshot and change the folder that I saved it in. Whate...

Re: MX-23.1 Screenshooter Not Keeping Saved Location [Solved]

Interesting.. I have checked two mx21 machines and neither have that file? It's created when a screenshot launcher is added to the Panel, and a change is made to that launcher's default settings by right clicking the launcher > Properties. If I delete the file and remove the launcher from the panel...

Re: MX-23.1 Screenshooter Not Keeping Saved Location [Solved]

Looks like I might have found the problem, I was able to repeat the same behaviour on my MX-21, and I was able to fix it so after a restart it still works correctly. There are two separate places the save location for screenshots is stored, one location is used when opening the screenshooter with a ...

I'm on MX-21 and it work for me. I found that I could change it back to pictures by just changing it in the save menu before saving.

Re: MX-23.1 Screenshooter Not Keeping Saved Location [Solved]

Not that I am aware of. That is supposed to be the control. Yeah it's a strange one, for now she'll just have to try and remember to check the location is where she wants when saving the screenshots. It's repeatable every time on that laptop, though I've not seen or heard it mentioned anywhere else.
