That worked nicely... Though I find that esc cancels and enter confirms the move or resize... (though That might have to do with the detour theme I added to to enable keyboard manipulation of various pop-ups such as the logout confirmation box????) > as for resize with mouse on "lower corner" this is how e17 work by > default out of the box - same thing. bottom right - u'll get a mouse > cursor change when over the resize control, click and drag to resize. the > bottom, bottom right and bottom left resize in different directions. same > with top, top-left and top-right. e17's default theme has no left/right > borders so you cant do that there. Well maybe that's also to do with "detour" theme, But I couldn't find the sweet spot for the vertical resize either. At least not with the window boarders I'm getting by default with kde applications. Moot point though as I much prefer to use the keyboard for that anyhow. Speaking of which. I can now confirm what I said in that other thread about being able to get at the part of an application window that extends into a virtual desktop from a neighboring desktop... The keyboard move option does in fact let my slide an oversized application window arbitrarily up or left until I can get at whatever had been extended past the desktop boarder... -- | --- ___ | <0> <-> Joe (theWordy) Philbrook | ^ J(tWdy)P | ~\___/~ <<jtw...@ttlc.net>> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
