# wm-properties-capplet(1)

allows you to select which window manager you wish to use.

## NAME

wm-properties-capplet - allows you to select which window manager you wish to use.

## SYNOPSIS

**wm-properties-capplet** \[ **No options** \]

## DESCRIPTION

**wm-properties-capplet** Because Gnome is not dependent on any one window manager this capplet allows you to select which window manager you wish to use. The Window Manager capplet only shows Gnome-compliant window managers; if you want to use other window managers, you have to tell Window Manager capplet about them.
