  11. Q: How do I hide the window decorations on maximized windows on xfce ?
  12. A: You can use a patch for xfwm4 available here : https://github.com/cedl38/xfwm4-titleless. Alternatively, you can try to use an external program like maximus (performance should be lower).
  13. There are also some xfwm4 themes with very thin border like this one :
