Switching workspaces in XFCE issue?

view full story
linux-howto

http://askubuntu.com – I disabled the applet for desktop workspaces in my xfce panel(well I actually removed the panel all together), but now xfce seems to think my 4 workspaces are side-by-side and not splayed out, so the shortcut ctrl-alt-'up arrow' and ctrl-alt-'down arrow' dont work but the left and right arrow ones do. Any idea how to fix this without re-enabling the panel? I prefer using the cairo-dock as a panel substitute for those who demand a reason. (HowTos)

I am running Xfce4 with compiz-fusion.  I don't usually use a workspace switcher, but I put one in my panel -- just for you.  With my Intel 915, it works just as I would expect it to.  The panel appears on all desktops, and the switcher tracks the desktop I am on.  It also shows open windows on the other workspaces.As I said, I usually don;t use the switcher.  I have

[xfce] XFCE panel icon sizes 34 weeks 1 day ago

Hello

Take a loot at the image of my panel in XFCE 4.10.

As you can see the icons of the quick launch (marked orange) and the icons of the opened applications (marked green) have some incorrect and painful sizes for my eyes.

Is there a way to adjust them so they look like the one that are at the very top of the panel (which is the app menu panel applet, btw)?

I have installed Xubuntu desktop on top of initial Lubuntu 12.04 installation.

How can I select between the wireless networks and how to see the app in the panel?

I used Xfce in the past but I do not remember how to add it (I had it by default then I guess)

I have searched for an answer to this both here and with Google but the only things I find are quite old, for Xfce 4.4 and older.
