Thanks for the information.

I've noticed it only happens with some programs.  With Claws Mail, when
I move the mouse pointer to the X to close, the whole box around the x
turns blue and I can click anywhere in the box and it will close, the
same when playing Freecell.

Only when using Firefox ESR do I have the problem, and I use it most of
the time.

I'm not giving up MX Linux, I'll just learn to live with it.
