I recently noticed that when i open a program (that opens a window), the window has a border on top, naming the app. For example, on Firefox it says: &quot;ask Ubuntu - Mozilla Firefox&quot; that has the regular 3 buttons(minimize, maximize and close) and a forth one that just minimizes the window while also letting the &quot;ask Ubuntu - Mozilla Firefox&quot;, with those 4 buttons on. This annoys me tbh. Does anyone know any way of getting rid of it and why it has appeared?

I would like to add an edge loop around each one of these windows and are not 100% sure on the best way to do it even after watching some videos.  If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great. Thanks.

In most windows desktops the minimize, maximize and restore buttons for a window are placed in the windows decoration on the top right. However, MacOS and now Gnome in Ubuntu have placed those buttons on the left.  What is the important aspect when deciding where to place them? Is user expectation from previous experience the most important aspect, or are there other independent aspects that relate to where the user would first look automatically? Is there a difference for localizations where the letters are written from left to right, or from right to left?

Just installed Ubuntu for the first time... Is there any simple way to browse installed programs?  On Mac there is the Applications top-level folder... here I see Desktop, Documents, Downloads etc but no Apps? That'd be a good idea, no? (is there some way to create this myself?)  On Windows there is the Start menu...  Here it seems like I have to click the 'Dash Home' and then I can see 'Recent Apps' ... I can search for them (I'd rather not)  ...or I can click the ruler/pencil icon at the bottom and see 'Recent Apps' and click to expand 'Installed Apps' ...ok that's all of them - is it possible to get a straight list view instead of the hard-to-scan wrapped rows?  Also, is there any way to get rid of the pointless random selection of 'Apps available for download' at the bottom?

(Ubuntu 13.04 with GNOME Shell, upgraded, GNOME version 3.8) Recently, I upgraded Ubuntu to 13.04. the default desktop is gnome-shell. Except Nautilus, other software border doesn't disappear when I make them to be maximized. I checked the problem for these software:  LibreOffice Firefox Rhythmbox thunderbird GNOME-Terminal  On the other hand there are three bars on maximized mode:  GNOME Shell panel  Title-bar for software which contains - + x (minimise, maximise, close) buttons.  Software menu-bar  Number &quot;2&quot; is extra. Is a package missing?

How do you prevent programs from obnoxiously opening the browser on their own accord?  It's unbelievable that programs/developers feel so entitled as to A.) open another program on one's computer, and B.) then have the gall to browse to whatever site or advertisement they so please.  cough... Revo Uninstaller

Is there a way to determine which application is drawing on top of other applications?  For example, Facebook Messenger app can draw the chat bubbles on top of everything, but how do I know which app is doing this?  My problem:  I have an app which is drawing ads on top of everything and I wanna know which app is doing this. Not just to uninstall it, but to warn everyone that uses this app. (I didn't install any application recently and I already verified the recent updates.)  I tried to use the Dump View Hierarchy for UI Automator from the Android Studio, but it seems that the applications that draw on top can't be selected this way.  (Click image to enlarge)

I'm using Maverick with Compiz enabled.  I've searched AskUbuntu and Google. AskUbuntu doesn't have anything on this topic and everything Google turns up is a couple years old.  I'm doing browser tests and my tests are constantly spawning new Firefox windows. The problem is, when the window is spawned it takes focus. This is incredibly annoying as I'm usually in the middle of typing somewhere else. This doesn't only happen with my tests, but is the most common example I run into. Sometimes my IDE decides it wants focus when something special happens (like when something is done compiling) and then later I'll find fragments of IM messages I've typed in my code. This is driving me crazy. I've looked in both Gnome settings and Compiz settings and can't find a way to prevent that from happening.  Does anyone know of a way to prevent an app from stealing focus when it is opened? I'd rather have the taskbar flash at me or something to get my attention.

I feel one of the biggest improvements with Chrome on Windows is moving the tabs all the way to the top to the screen (so the mouse can just go all the way up, then click). I went with the kubuntu because they do not include the normal (pointless) Linux menu bar at the top of the screen. It took me an hour to get chrome on here and now I see there is a Giant pointless title bar across the top. It is a good 5% of the total screen area and it is just the title and close buttons. Is there anyway to have the chrome tabs all the way at the top of the screen like was intended by Google?

Example:      My question is simple.  What are the different colors representing in the unity launcher background for each icon.  I mean, it seems consistent (firefox is always orange), but it's not jumping out at me what the pattern is.  On my screen, it's:   Firefox: Orange Chrome: Yellow Terminal: Grey RDP App: Blue KeyPassX: Green NetBeans: Blue   I'd like to turn it off if possible, but first I'd like to understand more about it.  Any launcher experts?

Is there a way to hide certain apps from cmd+tab?  The problem I'm facing is that I have some apps (like iTunes and of course Finder) always open. But when I'm working and switching between apps that are relevant for me (Chrome, Sublime, Terminal) with cmd+tab I'll always see these 'irrelevant' apps in the menu.  Thanks

I just installed Windows Server 2008 R2, including the Desktop Experience feature, and activated the Themes service. I've activated Aero.    I have everything there, except that when I drag windows, I only see the border of the window as I'm dragging.  In other/older SKUs of Windows, there was a checkbox that I think said "Show Window Contents While Dragging", but I can't find such a checkbox on this OS.

When you open a tab on the , and switch to another tab, the icon has a partial white background: Firefox (Most obvious) - note the difference between that and the normal Stack Overflow logo  IE  Edge  Tested on Windows 10 with Firefox 41.0.2, Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge v20.10240.16384.0. (If someone could test this on chrome that would be great)

When I maximise a window and hover my mouse where the window controls should be, they do not appear however if I hover my mouse over the file menu bar, they do appear but as soon as I move my mouse back, it disappears as if my mouse was elsewhere. This is only on maximised windows and I'm using Ubuntu 13.04.  Mouse over menu:   Mouse over window controls:

If I flag a comment now, it puts the dialog off the page:        It is only fixed by performing one of these actions:   Maximize window (if not already maximized) Restore window (if maximized)         I am running Windows and Firefox; also I tried Firefox in safe mode. I would be interested to see what testing was done on this beforehand - as this seems like a pretty glaring error. Please and thank you.    Inspired by the answer, the following CSS worked for me. It makes me sad to have to fix Stack Exchange CSS; I would figure this community over all others would get it right. Oh well.  aside {   transform: none !important; }

I have an application using multiple windows. How can I quickly bring all the windows of that application to the foreground?   When I scroll through the applications with the scroll-wheel it only shows one window. When going to the next window, the last window is brought to the background again.  When I click on the application icon, I get a full-screen overview of all the windows. I have to select each window manually and move my mouse across half the screen several times.  My best solution so far is minimizing all windows (Ctrl+Super+D) and then show the windows of my application using the scroll-wheel.  Is there a better solution?

After an update to both Windows 10 and Chrome (51.0.2704.103), my default browser has cleared:    and clicking the "+" button to choose the default only gives me the option of Edge and Firefox:    Does any one know why this is or what I can do to fix it?
