Switch between different display settings
Re: Switch between different display settings
Thanks, I also copied the file for the panel. I think it'd be great if there was documentation somewhere about the relationship between configuration windows and files. Like if I click on "Help", that the Wiki page should have something like

Good suggestion (add to which Help file?).

Re: Switch between different display settings
I think whatever page opens when clicking the "help" button in a window.
Re: Switch between different display settings
Right, but the Help button on which app?

Re: Switch between different display settings
All of them Well, I really think that it should be documented for every settings windows where it stores the entered information and how to access the defaults. In this case I am talking about Appearance, Panel and Orage Panel Clock.
Re: Switch between different display settings
I don't think so. The help files are for all user to provide general help. If you want to become an Xfce/Linux expert knowing about all the little details our help files will certainly not be exhausted enough for that exercise.
I've pointed you already to the default settings, which is a bit to much already for new user.
Just use our existing tools like MX Tweak where you find panel backup or use our MX User Manager to copy all settings from an existing user. Just create a new user, do your tuning within this new user-profile and copy to the old user.
Certainly you are welcome to provide update to our help files and wiki.
Just send us the updated helpfile or a new one and we will review to incorporate this into our existing ones.
Thanks

Re: Switch between different display settings
the xfce wiki does a good job detailing out what does what in the Xfce world. I use it quite regularly, along with some of the "man" pages (especially for terminal and xfconf).

Re: Switch between different display settings
+1, and don't forget the arch-wiki, one of the best with extrem details and high quality.

Re: Switch between different display settings
DPI
Orage Clock: Font Sizes for each row
Panel: row size
Notification Area: Maximum Icon Size
Desktop: Icon Size
Window Manager: Theme
But the result is still not quite satisfactory, see screenshot. Maybe it is really easier to just use a low resolution.
Re: Switch between different display settings
Just wanted to let you know that I can't reproduce the problem anymore. I'm not sure if this is because of the new version of MX Linux or because I have switched from persistent USB to installation on USB... but I'm happy. MX Linux looks great on both laptops.
