MX tweak -> Options and show the position of "Panel" and "Apariencia"

MX tweak - Opciones, Panel, Apariencia.png

"Apariencia" and "Preferencias del panel" is in Xfce, in MX-Tweak there are a direct access ?.

Whisker Menu -> Configuration -> Appearance -> Types of letters, window too big

Testing 19-Beta-1 on my Acer Aspire One Netbook. Quite fast for an old machine!

Some windows (MXTools) are too high for the screen, Maybe some/one of dev’s could look into that? Maximum height 550 pixels, for instance. Scrolling works, so give it a try…

That is not unusual for netbooks, I had that issue on every distro years ago with my netbooks.
I believe you use a combo of Alt-F7 keys to move/resize the window for those small screens.

I tried hitting the esc key while booting MX 19 on my Lenovo 11e with the bay trail cpu and it just refuses to get past the initial boot screen. It goes black and freezes right at the plymouth/MX screen. It gets to the screen that says udev and that's it.
MX 18 boots on this machine, as does Ubuntu. So I'm not sure what the issue is with MX 19 beta. The usb MX 19 live works on other machines, so it's not the boot media.

I tried hitting the esc key

Why, exactly? Was that a live or installed boot?

Live, though same issue when I tried a full install on an external drive. When it came to the plymouth screen to see what the text said, thought maybe I could find out why it was freezing, plus felix recommend I try it in an earlier post. But it just stays stuck on a black screen.

does it go black, or does it still have text on the screen.

if black, try the i915.invert_brightness=1 as a boot parameter. or try just adjusting the brightness (up and down, because the values could be backwards) after waiting a while. I have 2 lenovo cheapies that do this. its annoying, and yes, they both worked fine on 18.3, but exhibit this issue on 19. antiX has the same issue on those machines (lenovo s21e and a ideapad 110s)
