You can test Unique by using the option "wm = unique". The concepts of Unique are explained in some files located in wm/unique. The window manager module is responsible for the full composition of the window stack and manages everything between input devices and windows. It's already possible to write a full 3D window manager without modifications to the core, because all the input and output can simply be passed through a matrix. Unique is 2D and is not in a usable state yet. But it already shows window borders around any window that doesn't suppress them. -- Best regards, Denis Oliver Kropp .------------------------------------------. | DirectFB - Hardware accelerated graphics | | http://www.directfb.org/ | "------------------------------------------" _______________________________________________ directfb-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mail.directfb.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/directfb-dev
