No brackets when minimizing window in Mint 17 XFCE

Hello!
As soon as I minimize a window it shows me brackets arount the icontext. How can I stop them appearing. Using this does not work as I do not have the files (but same problem):

I think that the brackets are there to remind you that the window is minimized.

Yes but I do not want them. Always confusing and it looks not so good.. How can I remove?

If you're using Xfce 4.14 then this should disable the brackets:

Re: No brackets when minimizing window in Mint 17 XFCE

Hello and welcome, dervoeti, your solution works nicely here!

For the record, it's this command:

xfconf-query -c xfce4-panel -t bool -s false -n -p $(xfconf-query -l -c xfce4-panel -v | grep -P "^/plugins/plugin-\d+\s+tasklist$" | awk '{print $1"/label-decorations"}')

Change 'false' to 'true' to revert the change, nice!
