Just installed MX 23 on my widdle HP Stream 13 notebook (doing great so far, except for a few minor things like this!). I don't (yet) have a bona fide mouse attached, so I'm using the touchpad for navigation and control. I have a very hard time grabbing the edge/top/bottom or corner of a window to drag it to resize it. I can't seem to find the answer to fixing this in the Window Manager or tweaks, Mouse/Touchpad settings, etc., etc. Is it the windowing theme, perhaps? (Using mx-comfort.)
Okay, might have answered my own question -- it does seem to be related to theme (well, "Style", to be proper). Seems for me to be an issue with mx-comfort, blackbird, greybird-mx, high contrast, etc., but *seems* to be okay when I switch to Adwaita (or its dark variant) or maybe Arc (but not all of its variants, it seems). So I might have to use a style that allows me to work with the windows, even if I might not care so much for the appearance (just sayin') -- it doesn't *really* bother me so much, but it shouldn't be an issue. Sooo -- is there a way around this without having to compromise my appearance preferences?
