Bug Description

To reproduce run xpad on Lubuntu 16.10 and notice that the not does not have a titlebar now or client side minimize maximize or close buttons.

Description: Ubuntu Yakkety Yak (development branch)
Release: 16.10
xpad:
  Installed: 4.8.0-1
  Candidate: 4.8.0-1
  Version table:
 *** 4.8.0-1 500
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu yakkety/universe amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
I expected xpad to have either a titlebar or the new version to have client side decorations that allow it to work minimized or maximized with the mouse. I then pressed alt +space to try and see if it was just undecorated and decorated would get it how I wanted so that is not a working workaround. I am not sure if this broken by gtk 3.20.

It seems the window decorations are off by default, probably by design to emulate a sticky note as close as possible. These can be enabled in the preferences (right click on any pad or the xpad systray icon) though and then work fine here.

The only issue I could find in this regard is that the help file - also shown on first use of the application - states the window decorations are enabled by default which isn't the case.

Reassigning to the upstream project for the documentation inconsistency.
