So gnome-tweaks isn't installed by default. I haven't thought of that.

@Sheemon: Install gnome-tweaks by entering "sudo apt install gnome-tweaks" 
in a terminal, or go to "Ubuntu Software" and click on the magnification 
glass icon in the top left. Enter "gnome-tweaks". "Tweaks - Tweak advanced 
Gnome 3 settings" is shown. Click on that, then click on "Install".

This should be it.

Bye,
Volker
