Hi All !
openSUSE 10.3 (compiz-fusion ccsm) and Windows Vista Aero Glass can switch windows in 3D space in very nice way.
However, openSUSE 11.0 BETA1 (compiz-fusion ccsm) doesn't seem to have this effect. Where is it gone?
I see the "Ring switcher" in ccsm, but no "Vista" switcher.
[begin rant mode] Why must Linux emulate every lame trick Windows comes up with?
[begin mega rant mode] Why must everything windows does be labeled as something windows "came up with", regardless of how many other systems or programs did it before. In the case of 3d window switching, the first time I saw it was in project Looking Glass from Sun, and I wouldn't be entirely surprised if someone told me it had been done even earlier. Almost nothing in Windows was invented, originated, or even perfected in windows [/rant]
In my day job I use Vista and I find the vista switcher a useless piece of Eye Candy which is ALWAYS slower than selecting the window from the task bar. [/rant]
In any case, I don't think "I don't like it so you shouldn't either" is an answer to any question Since the OP said "where has it gone?", I'd be more interested in knowing if it was ever there in the first place. Maybe someone just forgot to package it Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
