But I didn't think of moving the mouse horizontally to the next screen as a case of edge bindings. I thought edge bindings were about the edges of *windows*. But it would still be better for the user to have it *also* along with all the other settings for Number of Desktops etc. ///Peter -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users

I'll have to observe it more carefully. Right now if I slide my finger sideways on the glidepad, it does indeed stay close to the edge on the new desktop. But I have very often had the mouse jump to the center of whatever application window is open on the new desktop, which is very annoying. But I must find the circumstances which make this happen. > under settings -> input -> edge bindings. It was the Input which had eluded me: I expected it under Screen.

I just wanted the time delay, so that's OK :-) ///Peter -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users

[e-users] Moving between desktops
I have four desktops configured and I use Ctrl-Alt left/right to navigate between them. I can also do it by sliding the mouse off the right or left edge, but that's very rare for me. At the moment it's far too easy to accidentally go to the next desktop if the pointer hits the edge of the current one. It's compounded by the fact that the pointer automatically goes to the centre of the new desktop instead of the edge where it entered, making it tedious to move back. How can I make the delay time between desktops longer (much longer, maybe 500ms) when it's due to the mouse movement? Or perhaps make it the same value as the delay before raising a window, if you have auto-rais and focus-follows-mouse enabled. That would at least be consistent from a usability point of view. ///Peter -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
