Yea, this behavior makes a lot of sense for sticky windows. The problem is that during cube motion these windows suddenly becomes on top of windows that they are normally stacked below and that looks pretty bad unless it's animated. I think it will look better if the cube is moved back a bit during motion like when windows are being elevated and maybe it makes more sense to make this functionality part of the 3D plugin, which btw should hook into the cube plugin the same way rotate plugin now does. -David _______________________________________________ compiz mailing list compiz@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/compiz
