Make the window buttons clickable from the bottom line of the screen

Hello there,

I have one bottom panel that houses the window buttons, among other things. But those buttons aren't clickable if the mouse cursor is on the very bottom of the screen (i.e. the bottom line of pixels). This is very annoying because I have to click precisely on the center of the window buttons. Is there a way to change this? Like making the window buttons fill out the entire height of the panel?

I am using Xubuntu 18.10, by the way.

Thanks in advance!

Hello and welcome.

Which appearance theme are you using?

Try adding this snippet to ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css (create the file if it doesn't exist):

.tasklist button { margin: 0px }

Thanks for you answer and the welcoming!

I am using the Greybird theme, both for the appearance and the window decorations. I created ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css and added the line you suggested. It works perfectly! So, thank you, again!

That issue was fixed in Greybird version 3.22.10, unfortunately Xubuntu 18.10 still has 3.22.9

You can also download and install the newer version from here (as a DEB file):
