[Bug 819856] Re: Change the default Ubuntu window resizing mode back to Normal (currently Rectangle)

2014-02-10 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
** Description changed:

- ENHANCEMENT REQUEST
- 
- All other window managers (Gnome Shell, Metacity) and operating systems
- use live resizing, and Ubuntu used to as well. We think it should be the
- default again because it just looks nicer.
- 
- NOTE: This enhancement is blocked by bug 803296 at the very least.
- 
- 
- ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
- 
  Problem occurs with: Ubuntu 7.10, 8.04, 8.10, 9.04, 9.10, 10.04, 10.10, 
11.04, Ocelot alpha 2
- Does not occur with: Ubuntu 7.04 and earlier (or any version running 
Metacity), Windows 95 and later, Mac OS X 10.0 and later
+ Does not occur with: Ubuntu 7.04 and earlier (or any version running 
Metacity), Windows 95 and later, Mac OS X 10.0 and later, Gnome Shell
  
  1. Install Ubuntu on a machine for which Compiz is installed by default.
  2. Restart into Ubuntu, and open a window.
  3. Hold down the mouse or touchpad button on the window's resize area, and 
move the pointer.
  
  What happens: A brown or orange rectangle appears, at the size the window 
will be, until you release the button.
  What should happen: The window resizes as you drag.
  
  Workaround: http://superuser.com/questions/239397/how-do-i-turn-on-live-
  window-resizing-in-ubuntu-10-10
  
- The equivalent problem was fixed for Xubuntu in bug 749665.
+ This bug is apparently blocked by bug 803296. The equivalent problem was

** Summary changed:

- Change the default Ubuntu window resizing mode back to Normal (currently 
Rectangle)
+ Windows don't resize as grip is dragged (Compiz default resizing is Rectangle 
rather than Normal)

2012-01-27 Thread Daniel van Vugt
Note: this is a downstream Ubuntu enhancement request. Upstream compiz
still defaults to Normal, despite bug 803296.
