Two problems after switching to XFCE4

Hey,
just switched from gnome to xfce but im having two problems with it.
First, all text in bookmarks, urls and titles is not centered.
Second, there is a transparent line when using docky. I found the answer here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=197426 but I have no idea what "compositor settings" are.

This is my first time using xfce and also first time not using gnome and gdm so please bear with me, also sorry if this is the wrong place. Wasent sure if it belongs here or in Newbie corner

Re: Two problems after switching to XFCE4

1) I can't see your image (corporate firewall). If it's browser specific, try a new browser profile. If it goes beyond that, create a new user (ie. useradd) and start an XFCE session to rule out old configs.

2) "Applications Menu" -> Settings -> "Window Manager Tweaks" (or xfwm4-tweaks-settings from CLI) -> "Compositor Settings" tab.
