I'm using 19 Tara XFCE and not sure about other versions. I found the perfect solution for this that I did not find while searching for an answer. Hopefully it's ok the repost this reply again here as this thread is asking the same this as the other, and I didn't find this solution anywhere online while searching: I wanted to add this here too (just replied to another post asking the same thing) as this post (and the other) both came up when I searched for an answer to this. This also changes the title bar and buttons the same way everywhere, on all applications, Thunar, etc., a huge bonus, to me anyway. There are also other theme choices that are smaller but not quite as small as the one I chose, the Mint-X-compact, so you can customize it to different sizes. I changed it from "Default-xhdpi" to "Mint-X-compact" and it made the Firefox title bar and it's buttons very small taking up little space, about 1/10 the size of how it was before. I found the solution using "Window Manager" in the XFCE menu under Settings/Window Manager by changing the theme under the "Style" tab in Window Manager. Instead of completely eliminating the Firefox title bar I wanted to make it much smaller, like 1/4 the size it was or less, and still have the title, and the close, min and max buttons on it, but without taking up all the space.

I want to add this for future searchers, as I found the perfect solution for this that I did not find while searching for an answer.

Maybe there's a way to modify the devilspie rules file to add the title bar back in if the window is un-maximized?Ī workaround for now in Xfce is to right click on the Firefox button in the taskbar panel, and select "Move" from the popup menu. So to fix that, I installed these three add-ons, which is kind of ridiculous:īut hey, you do what you gotta do in hard times lol.ĮDIT: So a problem with this is that if the Firefox window is un-maximized, the title bar is no longer there, so I can't move the window around.
