sounds liek the few minor bugs i fixed yesterday.. :)
-> One thing that seems to be a bit annoying is big windows--they get placed to
-> the bottom left of the screen, always far, far off. Sounds like it just needs
-> better placement code than the random->correct one.
actually no.. it finds a "spot" for a window.. fi awindow cannot fit in
without overlap the algorithm tries ot find the largest "hole" so u get
minimul overlap.. it often will find different holes to what you woudl
have cosen.. your'e always welcome to try and improve my
algorithm/code.. patches are always warmly recieved if they dont
break anything :)
-> One feature/bug I think is neat is the abiltiy to remain in focus with the
-> last focused window from another desktop. Mind you, its practical utility is
-> waning because I started augmenting my e-14 with xcfe as a launcher/menu
-> system. Somebody should E-ify it and make it an optional external menu system.
-> Maybe an e-14 option to keep that window in focus or a tool to change focii on
-> the go would be really neat and work well with the other usage I've seen.
hmm currently i guarantee u that sloppy and pointer focus work fine..
but click-to-focus prolly is busted as shit after i added floaitng
desktops (it wil work on desktop 0 - but i doubt it will work on any
others - i need to test this and go back and fix it...) I coudl have
the "focused window": remmeberd on each desktop and "going" to a
desktop changes it.. tho thsi only makes sense with click-to-focus..
pointer ans sloppy rely on the mosue position to dictate focus...
it's a snapshot.. lots of rough edges. being cleaned up as we speak.
