You don't have decorations in Firefox because Firefox switched to client side decorations. Please report to Mozilla. In Firefox, visit about:config and change "browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar" setting. (And additionally report to Firefox developers that their new default is annoying :) See https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/8k326i/how_to_get_kwin_back_on_firefox_60/ I did have decorations. I am still running Firefox 59 (not 60). I removed those window decorations by right-clicking the title bar, selecting "More Actions", and selecting "Special Application Settings". In that dialog, I went to "Appearance & Fixes", selected the "No titlebar and frame" option, in the dropdown selected "Force" and in the radio button selected "Yes", I then pressed "OK" to see the changes, but it closed the window and applied that change immediately, with no way to get it back. This applies to every other application and window where these changes can be made to. I am simply asking for a way to be able to preview the changes (a la an "Apply" button) without closing the window, so I can see changes and: (a) Not be stuck, (b) If I don't like the changes (and didn't remove the title bar), I don't have to go through the lengthy process to open the settings window again: right-click titlebar> More Actions> Special (Window|Application) Settings... Thanks :-) You can always get back there by using special window settings again. Use alt+f3 to invoke the menu (In reply to Martin Flöser from comment #5) > You can always get back there by using special window settings again. Use > alt+f3 to invoke the menu Thanks. :-) I did not know that. I still think an "Apply" button that does not close the window is still necessary, though, as that is a really esoteric shortcut. Is "INVALID" still appropriate for this bug / feature request, given that it applies to ALL windows that KWin manages, and not a Firefox problem which people misread the OP to be? I reopened the bug because "INVALID" isn't appropriate, given the people replying assumed this was a GTK/Firefox CSD issue when it is in fact not. In that case I change to feature request and I'm sorry to say that this is not worth the development effort. In fact it's technically not possible to provide an apply button as some rule types are one shots.

Can't you just copy the code for the close button, but leave out the `window.close()` (or whatever) part? That's all I'm asking for, leave the window there and open. If it were that simple... The rule you created might be single shot. On apply KWin would apply it and delete it. |
