[SOLVED] Xcfe desktop space+Alt buttons how to change
I'm playing a game and every time I press these two buttons space+Alt I get this:
How do I change the key that does that? I do not want space+Alt to pop that up no matter what.
I've searched but found nothing.

Settings > Window Manager > Keyboard
For some odd reason whenever I've clicked on Settings > Windows Mananger nothing every appears.
Nothing appears when I click on Settings > Windows Mananger Tweaks either.
When I click on Settings > Settings Manager and then Windows Manager, it just has a spinning wheel and never goes beyond that; it just hangs. I can close it though.
And no cpu cycles appear to be being used by anything either.
Thanks for the quick reply by the way.

Re: [SOLVED] Xcfe desktop space+Alt buttons how to change
Does it say anything useful when running the settings from the terminal ?
$ xfwm4-settings
$ xfwm4-tweaks-settings

It dawned on me while I was waking up this morning that it may be the window manager I was using.
Just a little while ago I was able to fix it. Haven't played the game yet but I changed it from space+alt to cntl+alt.
I had my window manager as Compiz. When I changed it with the fusion-icon to Xfmw4, then Settings > Window Manager opened up for me to change that setting.
I'm kind of new to this forum so could you tell me how I mark this tread as solved?
Thank you kindly for your help!!!

Edit your first post; there is an option to change the title. Just prepend [SOLVED] to the title.

Re: [SOLVED] Xcfe desktop space+Alt buttons how to change
I might want to mention that I had to leave the windows manager at Xfmw4 while playing the game.
Or else it reverted back to popping up that menu again. I have the fustion-icon and switch it to play the game and switch it back afterwards.
