Guide to Efficiently Utilizing Ditana’s Desktop Environment

Window Resizing

XFCE offers an unconventional yet highly convenient and reliable method for resizing windows. Instead of dragging the window border, hold down the Alt key and right-click near the edge you wish to adjust.

Cheat Sheet

The Ditana Cheat Sheet provides numerous useful tips and is automatically overlaid on the desktop wallpaper. To display it, press Ctrl + Alt + D. Follow the on-screen instructions to customize it to your specific needs.

Ditana Assistant

DPI scaling is automatically managed by Ditana and precisely matches the connected primary display. If you switch displays, the scaling will update in real-time.

Software Installations and Updates

Kalu will notify you when system updates are available (indicated by the blue arrow-shaped icon in the system tray). Applying these updates is essential not only for new features and security but also for maintaining stability regarding package dependencies in Arch-based systems. For more information, please refer to Software Installations.
