how to stretch..
sorry, this must have been asked a thousand times, but i cant find it searching the forum.. :
how do i stretch an audioclip in linux? when i hold alt at the corner of a clip the mouse cursor turns into the hand, but when i move the mouse i move the whole reaper, as in linux alt+click+drag does that. how do you circumvent this behaviour? thank you! |

Looks like your Desktop Environment is using the ALT key for resizing/moving windows. You need to change this key in your DE settings to another one. How this works depends on your DE. What are you using?

I m using linux mint with cinnamon desktop. Thank you.
edit: hmm it s weird. I cannot find the option to change the shortcut in linux mint nowhere. I went through the dconf editor and checked the system settings-keyboard shortcuts but nothing there... Last edited by calimerox; 12-12-2018 at 02:27 AM. |

got it! found it in some linux mint forum finally:
Run the dconf editor from the main menu. Navigate to org > cinnamon > desktop > wm > preferences and change the mouse-button-modifier. Set it to <Ctrl> or <Super>, but don't leave it empty. |

Just in case someone would be in the same situation as me :
I'm on Mint, Mate edition. For me changing in dconf-editor did not work. The solution was even simpler : Just go to the Linux settings menu -> appearance -> windows -> Behaviour tab. Here is the option for the window-movement-mouse-modifier key. Just toggle from CTRL to SUPER. Maybe the menus are named a bit different on your system, I don't know, I'm on a French system... Hope this helps |

On Xubuntu I used the main Linux menu "Settings->Windows Manager Tweaks->Accessibility" and set "key used to grab and move windows" to None.
