disable window edges (but keep title bar)

Hi,
Is there a way to remove the window edges on the sides and bottom but keep the title bar ?

Yes, remove the left, right and bottom elements of the xfwm4 theme. You can follow this process (using Plata as an example).

1. Create a custom theme:

   mkdir -p ~/.themes/MyTheme/xfwm4
   cd ~/.themes/MyTheme/xfwm4

   --

2. Copy over the xfwm4 elements of the plata theme:

   cp /usr/share/themes/Plata/xfwm4/* .

   --

3. Delete the left, right and bottom elements:

   rm left*
   rm right*
   rm bottom*

Test the theme by setting it in the Window Manager configuration dialog.
