I finally tried the window tiling and I like it. BUT... How do I get an app or window (such as the calculator) to ignore, or not be affected by the window tiling?

Hi gdad I must confess I do not like tiling but I spent some time to make a little research for you. The behavior you need is possible. Follow my instructions: - Open the key bindings dialog. Create a new shortcut (for example Win + F) and bind it with Tilling item called Toggle Floating. Apply. - When your actual window has a focus, press Win + F and window will loose its tiling - When you want to tile that window again, press the same shortcut I hope it will bring you more fun with moksha i.imgur.com/MbkkUbM.jpgi.imgur.com/VuhfJjF.jpgStefan

Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a shot when I'm back at my work 'puter. When I right-click on the title bar, there are window settings look like they're for toggling another apps or the users ability to move and resize the window, but it didn't prevent the tiling for me.

No, in moksha there is no border option for toggle tiling. In e24, it is. Maybe I should add it...

If Pop os is any indication, window tiling seems to be pretty popular when included on a traditional Linux os. Al long as it doesn't slow down the release of 6.0 too much The key binding trick worked for me- Thank you. One last thing- I don't see an option for window tiling under the guest account on the same computer. Am I missing something?

Hi, I just downloaded Bodhi 6.0. What a great distribution and desktop What I wonder now, is there some way to get Window snap-tiling like in XFCE etc.? You grab the Window with the mouse and move it to a screen border and it then resizes to half the monitor's size. Is this somehow possible? Remark: I only have 1 virtual desktop, so should be no problem with the monitor border. Also can somebody recommend a clean light-colored theme (similar to the light Linux Mint or XFCE theme)

We don't have a huge number of themes available either, so easiest just to install them all then flip thru them and see how they look. You might prefer detour... or like japan... etc...
to install all maintained themes:
sudo apt install bodhi-theme-pack

Thanks guys, really helped a lot. I did see the setting, but I didn't click it since I didn't understand what it meant. Works great Btw, does Bodhi use 1:1 the Chromium browser from Ubuntu repos? Somehow it feels faster then Chromium on other Ubuntu distributions. Or did you deactivate some functions that make it seem faster? Which ones?

For bodhi 5.1, ubuntus deb package straight from ubuntu bionic repo. For bodhi 6.0 64-bit, repacking linux mint's build and putting deb in bodhi repo ( I believe). Regular ubuntu 20.04 uses chromium from snap package, so it could take them a sec or two longer to load, but its not like ours loads super fast the first time (after reboot) either.... I know snap packages have some overhead so perhaps that affects it, although I thought mainly that just wasted a bit of memory and thought cpu difference would be insignificant...
