Re: difficulty adjusting vertical and horizontal panel sizes in gtk3 programs

[Ramiro Aceves <ea1abz%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hello Greg,

Thanks for the detailed answer and hints for ctwm, I appreciate them 
very much. Although I do not use ctwm but XFCE, only ocasionally,  after 
playing with the config file as you suggested, I think it is good to 
know a bit of how  ctwm works, it is highly customizable and low 
resources. I have been playing with BorderWidth in a custom ~/.ctwmrc 
file, set to 12, and window borders indeed are big and wider with 3D 
appearance.

But those borders are not my problem. My problem are the borders that 
are inside the GTK programs like tunderbird, that divide the program in 
for example 3 panels. There are very thin lines. In a good working 
Thunderbird, when you place the mouse pointer close to the line, arrows 
appear to help placing the mouse over the separation line. Once you have 
placed precisely the mouse you can adjust line position and resize 
panels inside the program. Without the helping arrows is very tricky to 
place the mouse accurately over the line.

Sorry if my explanation was so bad.

Regards.
Ramiro.
