Move Window Buttons to left hand side - SOLVED

Postby dyfi » May 30th, '12, 19:21

Just wondered whether there is a way to move the window buttons to the left hand side in Mageia 2.

Have worked my way through the gcong-editor but unable to find the necessary setting.

Not a vital request but any input would be appreciated.

Which desktop environment and which window manager are you using?

I am using standard Gnome Mageia2 install from the live CD - which I believe is a Unity environment (do not have compiz installed) and standard window manager.

We don't have Unity, it's only a quite vanilla Gnome 3.
