I'm interested in the transparent cube feature but I'm not very happy about the set of patches that is required to get this working in the current drawing framework. I don't want to push that additional complexity into the core and force all plugins to support it. It makes more sense to provide this functionality using an interface that allow you to push painting of a set of objects to an off-screen surface. Such an interface will likely not be added until other major drawing framework changes are in place but it's definitely something that should be added eventually. So, I'm not interested in adding transparent cube support to the cube plugin I maintain until there's a more appropriate way to do it. I'm sure the transparent cube feature is popular and there's an interest in having it available today. There's no nice solution to this but you should be able to create a plugin that is loaded before all other plugins and implement the same screen painting solution as what's provide with your patch to the core. - David _______________________________________________ compiz mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/compiz
