And today, xfce desktop has been release new version. You can update your xfce to version 4.12, which this version comes with many feature and bug fixed.
- The intelligent panel hiding feature has been implemented.
- Windows preview in alt+tab (Compositor need to be enabled too).
- Better monitor and multi monitor support
- Xfce’s Thunar file manager finally supports tabs.
- Thunar now also has support for multiple file properties, support for binary file size units, inverting the selection, improves volume / remote location handling, and improvements to the shortcuts side pane.
- The xfwm4 window manager has smart placement optimizations for determining the best area to place a new window where it’s least covered on the screen. Xfwm4 also now supports aligning windows next to each other rather than using random gaps.
- The xfce4-panel has improvements to its clock plug-in, including a popup calendar and support for timezones.
- The xfce4-settings area has improved display settings with the ability to clone displays via the GUI and other basic monitor management options. There’s also now mouse settings as part of xfce4-settings.
- There is support for imgur uploads added in xfce4-screenshooter.
