Three tools are provided to configure this window manager.

Window Manager: Basic settings. Binary xfwm4-settings, desktop entry file xfce-wm-settings.desktop.

Window Manager Tweaks: Additional / advanced settings. Binary xfwm4-tweaks-settings, desktop entry file xfce-wmtweaks-settings.desktop.

Workspaces: Configures the virtual desktops. Binary xfwm4-workspace-settings, desktop entry file xfce-workspaces-settings.desktop.

Note: All desktop entry files mentioned above have by default key OnlyShowIn=XFCE; and will thus not be visible in LXQt sessions including the panel's main menu. In order to use these desktop entry files in LXQt sessions remove this line either in the system copy of the files, normally in /usr/share/applications/, or in a user specific copy which has to be placed in ~/.local/share/applications/ most of the time. The latter is the preferred solution as it won't be overwritten by updates:

mkdir ~/.local/share/applications

cp /usr/share/applications/xfce-w* ~/.local/share/applications
