Hot Corners

Hi All, is there a way to trigger quick view of the open application with hot corners in XFCE? Or recommendation of other DE which is low on resource?

My PC only has 4 gb of ram and running intel core 2 quad.

Thank you.

Hi
This is not possible with XFCE. You can see KDE which is quite light and by removing some animations, it should work fine. At least I think so …

Why not look at rofi?

rofi -show window -show-icons -window-match-fields all -window-format "{w} {c} {t}"
will open a window listing all open windows on all desktops. I’ve bound the above command to Alt+/.

KDE is likely your easiest bet, unless you really like xfce.

Thanks everyone will try and report back

I tried installing and using the xfdashboard but look and feel didn’t fit my need. I then installed Cinnamon DE and hot corners works as I expected. I used Mint before so it seems like a good balance between XFCE and KDE.

Thank you all for your suggestions.
