Hi all, I've been exploring beryl and it looks very promising. Lots of effects. I'd like to share some ideas that I think will be very cool: 1. The ability to use movie/animation as wallpaper. I believe vista has done this.
We have got this since a long time, get xwinwrap app from here, and run coolbg in shell, xwinwrap allows you to use movies as wallpaper too: http://software.opensuse.org/download/X11:/XGL/
2. When we view the rotating cube, there is a virtual aquarium inside of the cube.
Not possible yet, run xwinwrap/coolbg atlantis
3. The burn effect is very cool. Would be cooler if an active window can be burned all the time too.
Use firepaint plugin to paint fire, will be available as soon as I get some time to package it.
4. Related accompanying sound effects for all the visual effects will give superb sensation.
Configure sound events (main-menu -> more application -> sound, should work, someone was working on sound plugin for compiz though, so may be we would get that too.
5. The ability to open certain applications just by "moving" the mouse pointer in certain movement. Something like when magician moving his magic wand.
It is called mousegesture plugin, it has been around for some time, not on the packages though, you would need to get the tarball and compile yourself.
Lots of crazy things. But, that's all for today :)
Isn't it amazing all your ideas are already implemented ;) -J -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
