[Bug 771448] Re: desktop wall edge flipping broken
Hi, Paddy Landau, I am able to get it working conistently finally with help from Ubuntu forums Open ccsm, go to Preferences > Plugin list and uncheck the box "Automatic Plugin Sorting", on the right panel "Enabled Plugins", move "wall" to the bottom of the list (or close to the bottom) and then restart Ubuntu. It has been working consistently ever since. This works in Ubuntu 13.10 64 bit. I think it would work in 12.04 as well . For 12.04, I used to go to gconf-editor and go to apps > compiz-1 > general > screen0 > options and edited the list and put wall at the bottom or close to it. This was working consistently in 12.04 but doesn't work for 13.10 any more (and the list is located at a different place in gconf-editor) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771448 Title: desktop wall edge flipping broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/771448/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 771448] Re: desktop wall edge flipping broken
On a fresh 12.04 install after configuring the Desktop Wall with ccsm, window moving shows erratic behaviour. In the Edge Flipping tab, enabling Edge Flip Move and dragging windows across workspaces loses track of the windows position, "lagging" behind a random amount of pixels (somewhat correlated to the movement speed) up to a whole monitor width, which effectively loses the window and needs it to be killed. This has also started conflicting with the Place Windows plugin, which makes the window jump around freakishly when dragging across the edge, so these two have become exclusive. Applying the above suggestions in the Bindings tab yields no success. Turning the Unity plugin on/off doesn't help the case either. Increasing the mouse polling intervall renders the Enhanced Zoom Desktop unusable, but doesn't improve the situation.

[Bug 771448] Re: desktop wall edge flipping broken
with the help of previous comments i think that i found a workaround to that bug. it seems that the default mousepoll plugin polling time of 40 ms is causing that bug. when you set the polling time to maximum value of 500 ms (and do a compiz --replace, because it doesnt seem to change that on the fly) edge flipping works like a charm. so, if you dont use magnifier, enhanced desktop zoom or show mouse plugin which all depend on the mousepoll plugin, you can easily set the polling time to maximum value without unwanted effects. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771448 Title: desktop wall edge flipping broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/771448/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 771448] Re: desktop wall edge flipping broken
Nevermind about event windows - I hadn't realized 'desktop wall' depends on 'mouse position polling'. It seems to be a problem with the latter then - perhaps it's not sending position events reliably? I just tried reducing the polling interval, with no effect. But then I tried disabling polling entirely - temporarily disabling wall - and then re-enabling both. Success! Flipping is working fine again.

[Bug 771448] Re: desktop wall edge flipping broken
Well, pointer edge flipping was working flawlessly for a while with the mouse button binding workaround, but now edge flipping is back to only working infrequently or erratically at best. A recent update seems to have hosed it. I have two laptops suffering the problem now. More updates/review: Toggling the edge flipping or restarting compiz no longer seem to result in a "honeymoon" period of a few viewport switches as they once seemed to. It's erratic all the way. Dragging windows also no longer helps. Drags will be block similar to cursor moves. The behavior also seems slightly different on the two laptops - one, the x300, is running unity. Edge flipping actually works fine - until compiz crashes - then, when compiz is restarted from the console, edge flipping becomes unreliable. On the x201, in normal mode, it seems to be erratic from the beginning. All edge directions are susceptible to failure, but it seems to have particular difficulty with 'top'/'up'. Perhaps the last indicates it is something to do with panels or other windows 'hiding' compiz' event windows? OId compiz seemed to have this down pat, but I remember keeping event windows in the right place was a nightmare on a window manager whose source code I was playing around with years ago. I do have a top panel - unity or regular - in both setups. I also feel like the unity one may have extra difficulty with 'up' AND 'left', which would fit. Or when other windows overlap the edge of the screen. (However, it is all so erratic it is hard to tell for sure.) Altogether a major (and frustrating) regression in any case.

[Bug 771448] Re: desktop wall edge flipping broken
In my Natty this edge flipping stopped working permanently and nothing is changing. However I managed to make something provisinal, because I needed those edges badly. I apt-get installed xautomation, a program used to emulate press of keyboard keys. Then, I set two key bindings for rotate cube in Compiz: Super + Left and Super + Right. I created two launchers and put those commands in each: xte "keydown Super_L" "key Left" "keyup Super_L" xte "keydown Super_L" "key Right" "keyup Super_L" Of course they should be executed as programs. After this, I put them at the ends of gnome panel. Additionally I drew thin icon (4x10px) so that they wouldn't use much space on the panel. They aren't as useful as edge + click, but better than nothing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771448 Title: desktop wall edge flipping broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/771448/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 771448] Re: desktop wall edge flipping broken
Piling on. I've been living with this since switching over to alpha Natty repositories several months ago. Figured it was just screwed up configuration, or would sort itself out , but recently did a clean upgrade on a second computer and am seeing exactly the same issue. Edge flipping will work a few times (anywhere from once to a few dozen), and then stop. Extremely aggravating, since it's so random. As observed by the others, grabbing a title bar and moving a window around a little (usually) seems to reset things - temporarily. So does unchecking and rechecking the option in compizconfig, or disabling and reenabling wall. (Occasionally, it seems to develop a pattern, where particular sides are more problematic than others: for example, after "resetting" as above, doing nothing but flipping left and right will seem to work fine for some time, but not up and down - and trying to will break left/right as well. This may be my imagination though. It's hardly consistent.) Derek's workaround seems to work (thanks Derek, big relief!). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771448 Title: desktop wall edge flipping broken -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've found that dragging a window across an edge to move it to the next desktop temporarily fixes the issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771448 Title: desktop wall edge flipping broken -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

thanks Derek, that worked.. I got it working doing this: Desktop Wall > Bindings > enable mouse move left and move right in "move within wall". Select all the edges and use Button 20 and button 19.

[Bug 771448] Re: desktop wall edge flipping broken
Since upgrading to Natty (non-unity mode), I have also experienced the problem Stephen described (can only make another edge flip after focusing a window), but I just found a work-around by accident. In the Desktop Wall plugin, Bindings tab, under Move Within Wall, I added mouse bindings for each edge + mouse button 1. These mouse bindings do not themselves work (see < a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/661380";>bug 661380), but it had the side-effect of making edge-flip-on-pointer work without needing to focus windows between flips (assuming it is enabled on the Edge Flipping tab). No idea why it works, but it does! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771448 Title: desktop wall edge flipping broken -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 771448] Re: desktop wall edge flipping broken
Same here. I've found that after each flip I can't make another flip until I focus a window by clicking it's title bar. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771448 Title: desktop wall edge flipping broken -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 771448] Re: desktop wall edge flipping broken
This bug also affects me ever since I upgraded to the final version of Natty. I was using 10.10 before and have not installed any alpha/beta/rc versions of 11.04 prior to upgrading to the final version. If it makes a difference I am not using Unity since I prefer the classic look of Gnome. Let me know if I can help resolve the sporadic edge flipping behavior as it is driving me crazy. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771448 Title: desktop wall edge flipping broken -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

In fact, when I restart X one time edge flipping may work well.
