[SOLVED]New layout of the "Save" dialog box

I recently upgraded to 4.16 and noticed something that for me is very anoying.

The buttons to save or cancel in the "save" dialog box were moved to the upper part of the window. They previously were located on the bottom right.
Example: open mousepad and try to save some text. You'll notice that the "save" and "cancel" buttons are on the top right and left of the window.

I've worked with the old layout for so long that I would rather have it instead of the new one.

Is there a way to return to the old layout for this kind of dialog boxes?

Many thanks in advance.

Yes. Set DialogsUseHeader to False in the Settings Editor, xsettings channel, Gtk path, or:

xfconf-query -c xsettings -p /Gtk/DialogsUseHeader -s false
