Hello, I'm developing a fancy screenshot application for the GNOME-desktop using GTK and GDK libraries (and some Xlib stuff too). When taking a screenshot of a window, my code first finds out in which desktop the window lies (resides) and then moves to that desktop and takes a screenshot. This is quite easy to do under the Metacity window manager, but I cannot make this work right in Compiz

hi, For compiz ubuntu packages, I made some patchs to have a behavior of compiz nearer to metacity. All patch are made for compiz-0.3.6 and they are more hacks or draft than good fix, i hope they can help. http://gandalfn.club.fr/ubuntu/compiz-patch/90-fix-no-border-window-shadow.patch This patch fix white boxes instead of shadows for gnome-panel and other non-standard windows on AiGLX.

My desktop computer uses a GeForce FX 5200 card and, when I was using Fedora 11, the kmod-nvidia drivers (a Fedora-specific repackaging of the binary blob) worked Just Fine. Now, even though I've followed all of the instructions for them, they don't. In fact, my system won't even complete booting if they're active. (I'm posting from a laptop, while I'm trying to get

I noticed there have been some older posts about a work in progress patch which never made it to the ML due to some issues. I am attaching three patches here in an effort to bring the button_layout support into gtk-window-decorator which allows you to define the titlebar button placements with a string (e.g. "menu:minimize,maximize,close") in /apps/metacity/general/button_layout. #

Hi. I have just installed latest git vanilla compiz under fedora core 6 and I have run into two problems: 1. Metacity theme support does not work. As soon as I type in gconftool-2 -s /apps/gwd/use_metacity_theme -t bool true the window border disappears. I have tried it both under KDE and Gnome with the same result. the window border can be brought back by setting the above value back to false. 2.

I'm trying to define my long time keyboard shortcuts in compiz on a new FC6 system with gnome. I want <Alt>n to run a shell and <Shift><Alt>p for pan. In metacity I could set the shell shortcut from System->Preferences->keyboard shortcuts, and for something like pan (which was not in the menu) I could do it in gconf-editor (apps->metacity, etc.). Since neither the

I just pushed some code into the compiz repository for initial metacity theme support. It's not complete, left and right borders are not rendered correctly, button decorations doesn't always match event window locations, maximized and shaded windows are not rendered as when running metacity, button locations are not configurable as with metacity... but it still seem to look OK with most

Hi, In July I reported a problem I was having with R and the fluxbox windows manager (with Linux). The interaction of R and fluxbox causes CPU to go to 100% when trying to create even a simple plot. It is the R process that is at 100%. R with any other window manager was fine, and all other applications (that I use) seem to run okay in fluxbox. I have updated both R (2.0.0) and fluxbox (0.9.10)

Hi Everyone, I'm going to make some big structural cleanups to core which is likely to affect everyone here, but I believe is for the better, so I am posting this mail now to get some feedback and make sure that we don't tread on anyone's toes when I merge all of this stuff. 1st Change: Decorators are going in their own repo ========================================= The decorators

Hi to all. I've just installed a Fedora Core 6 on a Desktop here, adding the default distro compiz package. I've some problem when the screen saver starts: when I try to enter my password to unlock the system, the window has no textbox in which enter my password...I have to kill from a console the gnome-screensaver to unlock the system. I saw the version of compiz provided with the distro

I have configured compiz to use 1 workspace and 4 viewports and metacity to use 4 workspaces. When I start compiz while metacity was running it uses 4 workspaces and 4 viewports (ignoring the gconf settings). When I restart X so that compiz is started before metacity this does not happen (it uses what its configured for). bug or feature? if feature can it be disabled? switching

Hi, I've been following the list for a few months but this just my first post to the list. I've just started to use compiz again a few days ago and I have a few things (probably bugs) here that bugged me a little bit. I am not sure whether the bugs is in compiz or somewhere else so it would be nice if someone could confirm them. Here they are: - on default window decoration the maximize

hi, I made a small a patch for gtk-window-decorator which define default border alpha to zero when it use metacity theme. That allows while playing with the alpha attributes of the metacity themes to have transparent borders. here too the modified ?Human Ubuntu? theme and a screenshot to show the result. ps: sorry for my bad english -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment

I have installed compiz with metacity support, my metacity libs are 2.16.3 and I used this command to on theme support gconftool-2 -s /apps/gwd/use_metacity_theme -t bool true but I can`t change border of windows in gnome-theme-manager I can change theme only. Is metacity support functionall yet ? Or I maked something wrong.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Yesterday I sent a patch (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24252/) against the latest compiz ubuntu gutsy source package to Amaranth, to make compiz compile (and package, of course) the gtk-window-decorator in two ways: 1) as gtk-window-decorator (= compiz-gtk package) using these configuration parameters: --disable-gnome \

David & All, As you might have heard, Intel recently introduced a new low-power device called a Mobile Internet Device (MID). We're working in Intel's Open source Technology Center on the Linux Desktop UI. Given the small screen we're planning on using a stack-based window manager where each application runs full-screen (think Matchbox). We think it would be very cool to get a

Hi all, I'm trying to do some window positioning for a GTK window. I compute positions based on current window sizes and that works well under metacity using gdk_window_get_frame_extents. Under compiz positioning is all off, because that function yields different results with windows decorations being the same (gnome window decorator etc.). With mc I get a height of 67, with compiz of 43

With latest compiz from git and latest stable version I have an issue with rxvt-unicode (urxvt). Every window seems to get screwed up, I can't touch the window title at all, I have to use the move key-bind to move the window around. The title bar also is half white half blue, Has anyone else encountered this issue. It is not present in Metacity or Openbox. But it is in beryl. Here is a

Changes since 0.3.2: * Core Support for multiple desktops (workspaces). Much better multi-head support. The workarea is calculated per output and windows are now maximized properly. Edge button option has been added to action options. It can be used to require a button press for edge actions to be triggered. Basic support from internal
