[opensuse] What's the New Double-White Desktop Border When Dragging Window in KDE44??
Listmates, What is the new double-white border that goes all the way around the desktop that appears when you are dragging a window by its titlebar and you move the cursor against any screen-edge?? What's it for? Could whatever draws it be the new part of KDE44 that is breaking Gnome on 11.0? See: (37k) http://nirvana/dl/ss/kde4/kde44-double-white-brd.jpg -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Well, testing by opening a window and dragging it to the edge shows that when the mouse pointer reaches screen edge a border defines a vertical half of the screen and dropping the dragged object fills that "outline". The same happens on the opposite half of the screen, and taking it to the top occupies all of the window while the bottom does nothing. Maybe a take-off on the Windoz 7 commercial? ps: Why would KDE*anything* affect gnome? They utilize different libraries for display. ps1: KDE44 is not "stable" for 11.0,11.1. You have become a "tester" and would be expected to file bug-reports/enhancement requests upon finding conditions you consider "broken". Or, remain with "stable" offerings. -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Can't see any good reason for it but you can get rid of it at :- System Settings -Desktop -Screen Edges and then look for Window Management and uncheck the 2 boxes Mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Mike, Thanks for the help - it came in handy again tonight. KDE Devs - it would be much less annoying if the outline that flashes around the screen were only 1 or 2 px wide and 50% opacity instead of 10px (total) bright white double lines. -- David C.
