After years with Solus I still don't know what belongs at dev tracker and what belongs here. I use dev tracker when I can prove broken-ness.
Like two repo and flatpak browsers that crashed xfce session. I took that to dev tracker.
Real Problem
very few apps auto restart on boot after being added to startup and set as auto start. even less hold after a terminal start. I have some 'for example apps.
ANNOYANCE?
background switcher does not populate itself. Or anything in a found folder. one has to long navigate then open folder you want. I think if I consolidate all I will be all right. I would have NEVER found this XFCE background folder (usr/backgroun
d) without a good old fashioned Thunar hunt. This wallpaper is too cool. Glad I found it.
.....in other words can't add wallpaper in an aggregate way like budgie, you have to navigate to the places you have it like /download
s and/user/share/backgrounds/xfce
and user/share/background/budgie
I installed this and add a single picture... maybe if I combine every single one of these folders of backgrounds then I can manually navigate (you have to manually navigate to find a backgrounds folder in xfce_) but have them all in the same place to choose from?
for contrast_: budgie,navigate to a folder with backgrounds, add all pictures or selected to a master folder. budgie background switcher will always open master background folder with all pictues combined that you added and you never have to keep going to source folders again and again ever. XFCE method is very time-consuming.
REQUEST?
I LOVE xfce panel like I love budgie panel....except they could really use dots under the icons indicating open. It's redundant that the open windows FF, KeepassXC, and Thunar live on taskbar see pic.
Can this be changed in Panel Settings? It's too nice and neat of a panel to install plank yet for me. Can I rip out the open apps? Is this what I remove?
It's as easy as removing that Window Buttons isn't it😉? Will report back.
hope this helps Beta team and not aggravates Beta team 😇

Sadly I'm completely sober and cannot locate all these damned italics in the second half of my reply. Freaky Monday.
