Hello, Would it be possible to have someone knowledgeable about the inner working of Compiz to change the messages CCSM uses (which can be found here<http://gitweb.opencompositing.org/?p=compiz;a=blob;f=metadata/core.xml.in;h=8fa18ab503a4c245a6f77582706d29bbbb654cc5;hb=HEAD>) to be understandable to us not really technical people? One example would be the 'Sync To VBlank' option. I have no idea what V...

...other plugins, and stop listening for gconf notify events so further configuration does not take effect at runtime (even for core configuration options). Using gconf-editor to add gconf to the active_plugins list allows it to work as expected (a viable replacement for the ini plugin). HOWEVER, ccsm does not appear to have any knowledge of the existence of the gconf plugin, so whenever you add or remove another plugin from the list, it ends up removing gconf from the list as well. Immediately causing compiz to stop listening for gconf notify events (see above). I would be happy to supply a...

...all of a sudden I noticed that I was getting a nice, big, robust rounded-corner display (somewhat mac-like). Now it's gone again. I really have no clue whether this came from compiz-fusion, emerald, a plugin, or something else entirely. I've been unable to find any likely options in the ccsm. I was using prebuilt compiz-fusion packages from amaranths repo for a while, and just switched to one I built from git-head. I don't know if that accounts for the disappearance. Maybe this is just a hidden gnome setting. Does anybody know? Thanks, -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting htt...

...libcompizconfig, such that it will be possible to enable or disable the use of protocol buffers at compile time. This change is not for the current distro release round (Ubuntu 8.10, OpenSUSE 11.1, Fedora 10, etc.). From the next round on, libprotobuf will need to be packaged for better Compiz (and ccsm/simple-ccsm) start-up performance. However, it would be nice if distros would package libprotobuf starting from the current round if they are not already doing so. This would help users who want to use Compiz and Compiz Fusion from git in a few months compile them with protocol buffers support to g...

Hi, There are a couple of problems with Snapping Windows that I tried to fix: (1) The snap to windows checkbox in ccsm has no effect because Snap treats any window with struts as an edge, and all windows have struts. I think it should be a test for dock windows. (2) Windows don't snap to the left edge because it has been erased. The right edge doesn't seem to get erased because it is slightly offscreen, so...

This may seem rather obvious, but how do I alter the window decorations, such as making the titlebar opaque, and changing it's colour? In CCSM -> Window Decoration -> Command I have set emerald, as I use KDE (on Ubuntu). The CCSM- > Window Decoration screen does not have an option for changing titlebar opacity or colour. The Emerald Theme Manager doesn't seem to be able to change the current settings, only the settings of the...

I'm using the latest compiz-git (along with compcomm patches & ccsm) and I'm having troubles with some keybindings. It seems that compiz is somehow intercepting any shortcuts that I try to use that are Control +Alt+*OTHER*. For example, I have set in my xfce keyboard settings to lock the screen on Control+Alt+l, it works fine with xfwm4 and the last version o...

Compiz 0.9.14.0 has been officially released today. Major changes in this release include: - Development has switched from Bazaar (back) to Git [1]. - CCSM has been ported to PyGObject, GTK 3 and Python 3. - compizconfig-python has been ported from Pyrex to Cython. - Restored the Color Filter plugin by porting it to the new plugin API. - Added support for loading configuration from multiple files. - Docks and splashscreens now appear focused. - Fixed...

...d in the rendering-cleanup branch * Store window shadows in X11 window properties on the root window, rather than trying to read them over gconf or dbus. Dropped the methods to read them over gconf and dbus. It is now possible to change the shadow settings using any settings backend in ccsm for any of the decorators * Fixed "inside cube" mode not working * Allow plugins to hook window minimization, unminimization * Fixed keyboard navigation not working in scale * Allow resizing from the center of the window plugins-main: ------------- * Added "MultiAnim" clas...

...e several) I noticed that the selected window name is displayed but not vocalized by the screen reader. I was initially surprised after discovering that the window title is not drawn with GTK; but I understand that Compiz itself does not actually depend on GTK --- only the GTK window decorator and CCSM use it. So Compiz renders text using Cairo on top of an OpenGL surface, which is all very reasonable. In this situation, what's the cleanest way of making the selected window title accessible? Is there an easy way of using ATK without making a GTK label just for the purpose, or should I try...

...ugin to (optionally) draw what we call "mouse guides": horizontal and vertical lines crossing near the mouse pointer to make its position more visible to visually impaired users. The user can configure the guide thickness, color (including transparency) and distance from the mouse, using CCSM. A patch is attached. Please feel free to tell me about any problems, including about the repo we should be using; we have based our work on the debian repository on alioth. It was not completely clear to us what repo is considered "official" for compiz, as several look abandoned. I...

Compiz: A colleague tempted me with compiz eye candy, and I tried it. Sorry, but many features were too far outside my usability comfort zone: - lazy mouse (in /this/ day and age???) - The Run window did not reliably pop up - minimize-all-windows turned everything black Some of those items were configurable. Some required multiple, diverse reconfigurations to fix. I couldn't fix the

No matter what I do, I'm not able to get window borders working. Both commands "emerald --replace" and "gtk-window-decorator --replace" runs fine, with no output, but no window borders are drawn. I've tried with and without: Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True" ..defined in the Screen section of xorg.conf, but with no difference. To my

It's common knowledge that disabling desktop effects (or disabling compiz) helps game performance in wine. Somebody mentioned that the Unredirect Fullscreen Windows compiz option (see http://wiki.compiz.org/GeneralOptions ), settable via ccsm aka compizconfig-settings-manager fixes performance problems just as well as disabling compiz does. I hadn't heard of that before. I never run compiz, but for those who do, does this work?

Hi, how can I enable a plugin from the command line? I know how to *activate* it from dbus, i.e. do the equivalent of pressing "Ctrl-F9" or whatever the hotkey is. But I don't know how to *enable* it, i.e. do the equivalent of clicking the "enabled" checkbox in compizconfig settings manager. Thanks! Carlo

...r window to the other screen and _make it sticky_. That way, no matter to what desktop I move, the browser window stays visible on the other screen. I assigned the "toggle sticky" action to Meta+S on my keyboard to be able to do this quickly. You should be able to find this somewhere in ccsm.

Hi, I've been working a bit on the match interface of CCSM lately and I found that it would be really useful to have features for each match prefix the plugin (core/regex) supports. The feature name is built similar to the image feature names: "matchhandler:" + prefix. For example "matchhandler:title" supports the match prefix "tit...

Dominique, cc: compiz, Dominique, you wanted the feedback, and List, I need your help. I have installed and fully configured (kicked the tires) on compiz 8.6 on openSuSE 11.0 and on balance it is great. There are a few weird things going on. Most notably, the number of options in ccsm that now uncheck themselves. In the past (compiz 0.5.6 - 0.8.2) there may have been one or two that would stick on some weird XGL issue, but I have a dozen or so that will not 'activate' for lack of better words. (you check -> they uncheck 1-5 secs later) My Hardware: Toshiba 205d lap...
