Hello. I have done some research and found that you can control the position of gtkdialog window (too bad I didn't bookmark the link). I have also found that for me it's easier to position the window near the taskbar so that after clicking the quit icon the window pops up just above the taskbar, rather than being centered. The fix requires a simple edit of the exitantix script.

1. Open a terminal, sux to root, and do

Code: Select all

geany /usr/local/bin/exitantix.sh
2. Edit line 12 as follows

Code: Select all

<window title="Log Out" window-position="2">
Now your window will pop up wherever your mouse is, which is just above the taskbar. Very handy. (This will work well in fluxbox as well since it will open the exit window next to the right-click menu.)

i like it centered. but is a good tip for those who want a fast access to the exit options.
