How to lose the window bars in Gnome 3?

I mainly use a amall screened netbook and I'd very much like to get rid of the window bars in Gnome3 as I find they use up too much space and I'd rather use the keyboard to close the open windows and move the windows.
I really don't know where to look, I can't make any sense of the theme's file in /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/...
[EDIT]
I'll answer myself, as it was fairly easy after all:
The file is divided in several parts, each with setting for maximized or non-maximized windows etc. To have maximized windows have no title bar add in the line starting with <frame_geometry name="max":
has_title="false"
You can also specify the size of the bar with
title_scale="xx-small"
Avaliable are x-small, small, large, x-large etc.

  • The windows of the Windows bar are already a form of tabs, so I don't need them in Firefox. How can I disable them completely from Firefox 23?

    RE: TABS ARE WINDOWS!
    The Windows bar already functions as a tab bar. Those tabs are called "windows." So, I find Firefox tab windows superfluous. How can I disable them completely from Firefox 23? I don't need what is essentially TWO windows bars covering up the entire width of my widescreen monitor's image! I already have a Windows bar at the bottom of my screen and, if I really wanted to, I could change ITS position to the top of the screen, so that it would LOOK like the Firefox tab windows bar. Firefox TABS are, essentially, a superfluous SECOND WINDOWS BAR.
    Here are my reasons for why I'd rather use Mozilla's Firefox, than Microsoft's Internet Explorer or Google's Chrome. I love and admire Firefox for Mozilla's intent on good security, for Firefox's Personas add-on, and for Firefox's free use of the Ad-Block add-on which, as you know, has the distinct virtue of reducing screen clutter--the last of which is my motive for wanting to get rid of the SUPERFLUOUS Firefox tabs "windows" bar. I am dreadfully sick of companies forcing miscellaneous bars (mostly representing marketing campaigns trying to sell me something) into my browser (and down my throat) every time I download something. (In case you haven't guessed, I am deliberately referring to your Firefox tabs bar as a "Firefox tabs 'windows' bar," because TABS are WINDOWS!)

    Let me clarify even more. The Firefox add-on you mention does not remove "tabs" windows. It only HIDES the "tabs" bar when there is only one "tab" in that window. It DOES NOT end "tabs." It does not turn "tabs" off.
    I know this, because, even with the add-on you recommend, the "tabs" bar often re-appears when I open a link, which--for some unknown reason--Firefox defaults to opening in a second "tab" within the same window, rather than putting it in a new Windows bar window. This, of course, disregards what I want to happen.
    I want to use my Windows bar to control my windows. I do not want my Firefox browser controlling my windows--which it calls "tabs." Can you tell me how to shut off "tabs?"

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    For people who have no access to the note, here are the steps involved. The same steps are listed in the note :
    1) Logon to your portal with your user who has super_admin role.
    2) Go to the System Administration tab -> System Configuration tab.
    3) Go to the Service Configuration -> Central Configuration.
    4) Change the portal.html.head.title part. Do no forget to save the changes you made.
    5) Restart the j2ee server to be able to see the changes on the portal

  • How to remove the window options

    Hi,
    I want to remove the windows option like minimize, maximize and close symbol at the end of the windows title bar. wen making exe i click the option and only the main vi able to remove all this but in sub vi's all this elements is been disable.. i want to remove it complete wen it runs.. how to do that? ... plz help.
    another question.
    how to change the menu bar color.. and the font color and style?... need help.
    Thank you

    Not that I know of.
    Just tell her the X can't be removed.
    The customer isn't always right.
    Can you think of any window in any other program that doesn't have an X button to it?  I can't think of an instance.  I can't think of any place besides LabVIEW that can have an X button that can't be clicked.
    Is there a reason you do not want them to click the X button?  You can use an event structure to catch a Panel Close? event for the VI and discard the event so you can run your own code such as ensuring a clean and orderly shutdown of the VI.

  • How to keep the Navigation Bar to a certain # of pixels?

    I'd like to know how to control the Nav Bar so that it always remains a certain number of pixels wide. I looks like I can set the Navigation Bar Width to a value, ie 150 pixels. But if the window grows, so does the Nav Bar. The configured width appears to be the minimum the Nav Bar can shrink to, not the max it can grow to. Is there a way to control the max width of the Navigation Bar?
    Portal version is 3.0.8

    Hi,
    I thinks that you should use your navbar in a dedicated area, where you can specify the width in pixel or in percentage (default option).
    I hope this can help you !

  • How to stop the tab bar from automatically hiding itself?

    ive only found how to stop the address bar from disappearing and everyone with the tab problem seems to have posted this over a week ago and still hasnt been fixed yet if noone has a fix im out and done with firefox they can suck a fat one
    why add this feature! i can understand the address bar but not the tabs all you have to do to hide it was push the tab button again and its gone was that so fucking hard that you had ruin a perfectly fine browser

    Hello,
    In Firefox 23, as part of an effort to simplify the Firefox options set and facilitate future improvements to Firefox, the option to hide the tab bar was removed.
    Fortunately, this can easily be resolved if you desire the keep tabs hidden. You can install "[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab/ Hide tab bar with one tab]", an extension hosted on Mozilla's add-ons site, which will restore the ability to hide the tab bar.
    Thank you and I hope this helps!

  • How to setup the windows installed pxi to RT target

    how to setup the windows installed pxi to RT target?

    Ranjith,
    I think the answer for your 1st que is NO. In the sense, you can run the code, but it may not work precisely as it is supposed to...
    A target can be said to be an RT, if & only if it has an RTOS installed in it, not just Windows, which is not a real-time OS.
    Youcan run the existing code in Windows, but as I said earlier, it may not give you the actual results.
    Finally, hereafter, pl dont use the term 'box' for a PXI. It is a chassis with a main module that runs on Windows or an embedded RT processor/conrtoller that runs on an RTOS like VxWorks or Phsr Lap.
    Hope this helps you to some extent...

    How to get the Windows Vista Driver for ATI Radeon 7500 card?

    The Radeon 9000 driver works for the Radeon 7500 card.  I have successfully used it on a T43 with Vista Ultimate x86

    Unfortunately no.  The Radeon 9000 driver should bring your graphics score up to close to 2, but it will not get it high enough to enable Aero support.

  • Why can't I click on the window bar in quicktime X windows?

    For some reason, I can't click on the window bar at the top of movie windows in Quicktime X. When I do so, it acts as if I'd clicked on whatever was behind the movie window. This means that I have to close windows with the keyboard rather than clicking, for example.
    This started happening before I upgraded to Mavericks, and continued after. Reinstalling the OS did nothing.

    Did you use the Migration Assistant updater before you installed Mavericks?
    I ask as a resident problem that follows one across a system upgrade usually comes on the heels of a data migration. (I was vexed right up through 10.6 by a migration of data from Panther!)
    If so, backup all your files and do a clean install. It would be easier to walk you through if I knew the configuration of your Mac and whether or not you have a bootable optical disk or an image on a USB thumb drive.
