A Xenial to Fossa upgrader's comments

For years I was a very happy user of Xenial Puppy, it was like my favourite shoes, but finally I made myself a bootable USB stick with Fossa.

I configured everything to be equally comfortable, and it's great — it looks almost the same, but the browsers are now up to date. Thank you!

There was only one thing that baffled me, which is how to turn off the semi-transparency thing that happens to windows that lose the focus.

How do you do that, and make it act like Xenial, which (I think) was all opaque by default?

@Bushbuck take a look at Menu->Desktop->JWMdesk

Look at the Window Effects section. There are window transparency settings there! :thumbup2:

@rockedge Ahh...the light finally dawns, Thank you! :thumbup:

If anyone else reads this after trying changing loads of settings, there's a "stop" button in there, and it does what it says. :lol:

PS, I love Fossa!

Make sure to do the Quickpet ->Info ->Fossapup updates

It will provide some bug fixes and updates that did not get into the ISO release.
