The Button layout ( close , mimmize , maximize ) which we used to see , and use them at the top_right window . in gOS , turned left , which is confusing alittle .

in Emerlad i used to change the poistion of the buttons so easily modifing the theme in the emerlad theme manager ,however in metacity it’s quit differernt :

open up a terminal :

gconf-editor

go to /app/metacity/general

and change : the button layout from

close,minimize,maximize:menu

to

/apps/metacity/general/button_layout .

you can change the button layout even as you used to , especially if you are moved from MacOSX to ubuntu .
