Finally!

Wuhu. Two weeks of holidays after two months of stress. :-)

Now, that I have some time, I can work on simple-ccsm again. It’s really so relaxing drinking a cup of coffee and hack a bit on simple-ccsm.

Because I don’t want to bore you too much with my personal stuff, here is what I’ve been working on lately.

First of all, the UI got some redesign. Looks a little bit more like other GNOME dialogs. Profiles are now selected with a ComboBox, the slider was just unusable with slower machines. As you can see, there is also a description field now. That should give the user a better idea of what the profile really is about.

I’m currently also working on an own page for Zoom, to configure basic settings.

The only annoying thing at the moment is the profile switching. It just acts weird. I have to take a closer look into the CCS internals to find out what causes that “weirdness”.

    I know this is a little off topic for this post, but its related enough so here goes:
    Is anyone working on / would be interested in working on some default system compiz themes out of the box? To have something to base other themes off of.

    Reasoning: Visual effects contribute to the overall “feel” of a desktop. Metacity / Emerald / gtk-engines doesn’t just ship with one theme and then tell people to customize. There are a number of default themes to choose from, and then the user can tweak them.

    Finally someone is working on a manager for “end-users”!

    @adam:

    I think some of the nicer GTK themes should be ported to Compiz.
    Might I put forth the suggestion of porting Mac4Lin…
