Just installed Plasma 6 and this is not fixed. While it is true that Cube now
appears under Window Management, it does not appear under Virtual Desktop
Switching Animation, which was the most important part of the Cube before it
was removed. Sadly I don't seem to have permissions to reopen this bug, so may
have to create a new one.

As per Nate in the KDE forums
(https://discuss.kde.org/t/strange-category-bug-vote-limits-at-bugs-kde-org/3450/2)
voting on bugs never really did much of anything for bug prioritisation anyway,
so I think it's been disabled to reflect the way it's always been in reality,
and not anything to do with this bug specifically.

What's with removing our votes?  I had one vote registered, and it was removed,
apparently because I had too many votes???!

Is this a not-so-subtle way of telling us the effect is not going to be

Agreed, this and the burning-windows feature are great distiguishing

There is a package available in AUR (there are actually 2, but this one is for
Plasma5):  https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kwin-effects-cube

I easily built and installed it, and have been using it for many weeks now. 
I'm very appreciative of "zjuyk" for giving us something to work with.  This
version gives the basic zoom out and screen flipping, as well as allowing for
the 3-D rotation/view.  I think the only thing it didn't like about my setup
was the second touchscreen monitor, but otherwise it seems to do what the Cube
used to do.  

It did fail after one upgrade, but after recompiling and reinstalling it, I got
it to work again.

There are some comments above about trying out kwin-effects-cube

I tried it and it's feature set seems much smaller than the old cube effect.
But it's the only option currently.
(thanks @Vlad, wishing peace, democracy and freedom for your country!)

Compiling is a little hard on some distros. Especially because of that big
qtquick3d dependency.

--- Comment #67 from Maximilian Böhm  ---
kwin-effects-cube works for me on Arch (there is a "kwin-effects-cube" AUR
script for Plasma 5). Already tried it a year ago.
Glad about its existence but… Currently, it’s just a demo. Maybe viable to wow
Windows users but that’s not why I was using the old cube effect. It’s not
possible to use this effect as virtual desktops switching transition, there are
no stacked windows in 3D, you cannot drag the desktop with a key combo + mouse
without centering the view first, there is no transparency, no reflection, you
need an extra click to get to a certain virtual desktop, there are glitches
with background images, I’m not a big fan of the open spaced borders… It’s
great someone made this plugin but currently, it isn’t there yet.

I want to cite my comment here about the Gnome extension "Desktop-Cube":
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=438883#c29
»But I have to admit, the Gnome extension looks neat. I wouldn’t switch to
Gnome (LOL) but it demonstrates the UX potential the cube effect has. Look at
its GitHub page: https://github.com/schneegans/Desktop-Cube – there are a
couple of really great UI/UX ideas in the GIFs. Combine this with touch, like
in the video demo and it gets astonishing. Nobody wanted to touch the cube
effect in Kwin for a decade, which effectively made it freeze in its 2010ish
code base and UI paradigms, but this effect holds so much potential if you
think it through.«

The Gnome extension currently is at v17. It has integration and transition
effects into Gnome’s overview effect, recognizes you holding the desktop, has
3D stacked windows and so much more. This is possible.

I’m even willing to found a bounty for the Plasma cube to get more love:

I just gave it a quick try - compiles and installs fine, it shows up in
system settings and I can see the kwin shortcut it adds, but nothing
happens when I actually hit the key combo.

and difficult to keep working...

and this is very rude. It takes time to reimplement things. It happens in
phases.

If you're not satisfied with the state of things, ask about how you can help
make it get to where you want it to be.

What's the ETA for this feature restoration? I'm running:

Plasma: 5.25.5
KDE Framework: 5.98.0
Qt: 5.15.6

and it's not here, either.

On another note, I'm not sure why an effect that has been stable for years and

an actual replacement... it could've just been left alone. Also, Bug 450230
shows that, whatever it is that got implemented, falls very short and does not

Thanks, @RobinK!

Do you know if it will work on a Virtualbox guest?  The hardware emulation on
VBox makes me wonder.

In the meantime, I'll build a spare laptop to an Ubuntu or KDE Neon recent
distro, and try the github demo on that - good practice!

Also...let me reiterate my total willingness to be a tester.  I have multiple
machines (including Virtualbox VMs) on a reasonable setup - 3 x 4k monitors on
a 12 core AMD Ryzen box with a Radeon RX 6600 graphics card.  I can't wait for
the Cube to come back!

I tried the cube effect at https://github.com/zzag/kwin-effects-cube a few
months back, and although it seemed to install OK, it didn't work...I now see
more recent work, so I'll have anbother go on a spare machine.

I too would like the Desktop cube effect back!
I'm using Kubuntu 20.04 with Plasma 5.18.7 and one of my biggest hesitations of
upgrading to Kubuntu 22.04 with Plasma 5.24.6 is that I'll lose the Desktop
Cube effect.

I see that this person has been able to bring the Desktop Cube effect to Plasma
5.24:

You may need to install qt5-quick3d (or the equivalent package for your distro)
for the effect to work, although at the current state the effect is only
standalone, as in it can't be used for the switcher animations. It works fine
for me once I installed the aforementioned package on Arch.

If it still doesn't work you may need to restart KWin, alternatively running
`journalctl -f` in a terminal and watching it when you press the shortcut key
should tell you what the issue is.

Hi - would love to see the desktop cube back, but I believe the problem is that
the new api's mean the effect would have to be completely re-written, and that
it is not an easy task. 

The KDE desktop is brilliant, and although in the past I have found things like
pulse audio to be frustrating, it is still the best desktop around. I switched
to KDE from Afterstep back in the days of the Kandalf mascot. SO really
appreciate all the hard work that has gone into the desktop, and, while I'm sad
to see the cube go, if we need to loose some eye-candy to keep the desktop
evolving, I'll have to live with it.

Please bring back the Cube, the Fade and Slide effects don't even compare.  It

Yeah, throw me on the list.  I'm still using Compiz, but it's woo growing
long in the tooth, and obviously not making the jump to lightspee... err,
Wayland.  If you guys get a cube that works in Wayland, I'll be on KDE for the
first time since I got Compiz working back in '06.  Wonder if anything's
changed in the past 16 years? ;-)

Yeah, i can confirm that. Cover switch, flip switch and cube effect were the
most stable ones in Kwin, the only bug i had with it was that window contents
weren't being drawn on every switches when they were minimized .
Its code may be huge, but if that were really that hard to maintain (wich was
the reason of the removal), then i doubt it would keep that stability if it had
to be messed a lot to keep working. I don't know about how it worked in Wayland
tho.
What is probably true is that they were making it hard to maintain *other
features*, not themselves. So they have to be re-implemented in a future
release.

"they are not used widely based on support information from various bug

means it was working very well." - You're right, I've used it on several
computers for a number of years even with various Linux distributions and
never had a problem, even when using it with Wine or OpenGL full screen
applications and games. Everything worked as expected.

Any word on progress here? I had heard it was hoped to reintroduce some form of
cube effect in 5.25, but there's no mention of it in the Beta announcement so
it looks as if it won't be ready then.
I did try to teach myself QML but it's a long way from learning how to change a
window's background colour to implementing complex animation effects involving
all the virtual desktops.

But I have to admit, the Gnome extension looks neat. I wouldn’t switch to Gnome
(LOL) but it demonstrates the UX potential the cube effect has. Look at its
GitHub page: https://github.com/schneegans/Desktop-Cube – there are a couple of
really great UI/UX ideas in the GIFs. Combine this with touch, like in the
video demo and it gets astonishing. Nobody wanted to touch the cube effect in
Kwin for a decade, which effectively made it freeze in its 2010ish code base
and UI paradigms, but this effect holds so much potential if you think it
through.

I also ask that the desktop cube be put back, and also the Virtual Desktops
with different wallpapers, different icons, and with different widgets on each
virtual desktop.
Although I know that the developers ignore us, the users, and for proof, they
removed the virtual desktops. And that the users complained and asked that it
be put back on.

I tried to replace Kwin with Compiz recently to bring back this effect, but
then i gave up since i've knew from Arch Wiki Compiz is incompatible with
Plasma because of the window decoration engine
I would really appreciate to have this feature re-implemented or replaced
Since i have already exceeded my 1 vote limit (yeah, 1 vote, really, ¿why can't

No, 5.24 has the re-implemented Cover Switch and Flip Switch effects, but the
Desktop Cube effect has not been re-done yet.

Can anyone confirm if this was successfully reimplemented in Plasma 5.24 as I
understand the planning was? I'm still on 5.23 while waiting for the new
release to reach Manjaro stable.

long-time Plasma user here, since KDE 3.0.

I created an account on this bugzilla, having never had complaints about KDE in
the past twenty years. My first issue is to add my voice to this list
requesting the cube transition be returned. I started running 5.23.5 last
month, as it was declared stable in the Gentoo main portage tree. I appreciate
the reason for it and look forward to better compositing, but the 3D animated
transitions are not a niche feature.

Only discovered the removal of several 

Ref: https://kde.org/announcements/changelogs/plasma/5/5.22.5-5.23.0/

Removed
- Effects: Remove Desktop Cube Animation effect. Commit.
- Effects: Remove Desktop Cube effect. Commit.
- Effects: Remove Cover Switch effect. Commit.
- Effects: Remove Flip Switch effect. Commit.

I understand the motivation behind the refactor / rewrite to modernize APIs and
etc., however, how do you (dev team) conclude that "they are not used widely
based on support information from various bug reports and our available man
power is sparse, the most reasonable thing is to drop the effect,
unfortunately." ???

This engineering mindset - "We've built great things, if users don't know how
to use / adapt, it's their problem" can't be accepted.

This reminds me the removal of GNOME 3.8 fallback mode, where integration with
Compiz (Fusion) went completely broken. It appears that the GNOME developers
know more about user behaviours than their users and therefore made the
decision on their behalf without consulting users.

I've switched to KDE 4.10 SC because of the disappointment at GNOME 3 (3.8 to
be accurate). I was surprised to find most of the effects - eye-candies that I
care about, embedded to my daily routine were implemented by KWin, happy till
recently when I found the cube effect when switching workspaces (virtual
desktops) were gone in KWin 5.23 (I run Manjaro with KDE on Pi 4 8GB model and
an old MacBook).

Please reimplement these effects when appropriate. We don't want to see the
classic representation of Linux desktop eye-candies fade away.

The Cover Switch and Flip Switch effects were just rewritten in QML for Plasma
5.24; see Bug 443757. The Desktop Cube effect will be next! I doubt it will be
ready for 5.24, but hopefully it'll be back for 5.24.

KDE is going the way microsoft went with 11. Or gnome goes. Who had that
brilliant idea to drop the feature without providing an alternative first?

Please return this feature. I have been using it for many years and I have
never had a single problem with it. So far, I have downgraded and will not
upgrade as long as possible. Then I will have to look for alternative
solutions.

Although I've no longer been using the desktop cube animation for a while, I
second this request: Please don't actually remove it! The last thing an user
wants to deal with, alongside running into any major bugs, is features they
enjoy going away because someone wise thought it's too obscure to matter. Code
cleanness and optimization is a great target to go by in everything, but I
strongly believe it must be done without removing entire features with no
alternative in place.

A bonus thought: This might be a good chance to implement a new and even better
desktop cube. I always thought it would be nice if we could have proper 3D
effects for windows, such as being able to drag them in full 3D space like
sheets of paper. It would be a different feature and unrelated to this
discussion, but goes well with the thought of putting something better in place
if an older alternative felt less than optimal.
