Hint: I'm changing 'Meta' key from 'Alt' to 'Win'. The main reason is that some programs have for 'Alt' + mouse's own behavior (such as GIMP). And then, that fits very nicely 'Win' + mouse => manipulating with windows (left for move, right for resizing).
In Control Center / Desktop / Window Behavior / Window Actions / Modifier key. When I change from 'Alt' to 'Meta', then action working with the 'Win' key.
FWIW, if I'm right in that you're saying you are going to change the default for Trinity, then I think this is a bad idea.
Alt has been the normal Meta key for decades and anyone that's used to using it will be annoyed by this change.
Most online references will (arguably incorrectly) reference the Alt key and not the Meta key.
Anyone who doesn't know about the Alt key won't appreciate that you've changed it anyway.
Not every keyboard has the 'Windows' keys on it.
You do not have to fear - I do not intend to change the default settings. I only recommended this change to those who have the Win key.
