This theme emulates the look and feel of the RISC OS 'window manager'.
|
||
|
|
Actually, RISC OS doesn't have a window manager in the same way X
|
||
|
|
does, but if you imagine it does, this is an emulation of that ;)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I've optimised it for speed, so you should find it quite nippy.
|
||
|
|
Particularly the fact that the left and right borders are single-pixel
|
||
|
|
gives a large speedup on my Matrox card when dragging windows.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I've requested save-under in the window decorations for that extra
|
||
|
|
speed kick, plus double-buffered the title bar and resize bar.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Functions that will be implemented but are currently missing:
|
||
|
|
Transparent resize.
|
||
|
|
Shading.
|
||
|
|
Backward-resize.
|
||
|
|
NOTE: Backward-resize is an interesting feature and quite useful.
|
||
|
|
If you resize a window such that you hit the screen edge
|
||
|
|
in the process, the window resizes 'backwards' (i.e.
|
||
|
|
moves in the opposite direction to your drag and at the
|
||
|
|
same time continues increasing in size). So instead
|
||
|
|
of having to let go of the resize handle, move the window
|
||
|
|
and resize again, it just does what you want it to do.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Button functions: (Missing functionality is marked with TODO)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Button One:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Left button: TODO
|
||
|
|
Lower window and drop focus. This is currently unimplemented
|
||
|
|
in kwin itself.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Button Two:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Left button: Close window.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Right button: TODO, if I can be bothered.
|
||
|
|
Close window.
|
||
|
|
If window is filer window, open another filer window
|
||
|
|
in parent dir.
|
||
|
|
If window is document window, open a filer window in
|
||
|
|
dir containing document.
|
||
|
|
If you hold Shift, the window doesn't close.
|
||
|
|
NOTE:
|
||
|
|
This requires app support.
|
||
|
|
If I were to implement this, I would do it in konqy
|
||
|
|
and probably not bother for other apps.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Button Three:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Left button: Iconify window.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Button Four:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Left button: Maximise or restore window plus raise and focus.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Middle button: Maximise vertically or restore window plus raise and focus.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Right button: Maximise or restore window.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The lower bar is used for resizing. It works in the NeXT style.
|
||
|
|
This doesn't exist on RISC OS. In RISC OS, there is a 'resize handle'
|
||
|
|
in the lower right corner of the window (actually inside the window).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To emulate this would mean covering part of the window with the decorations,
|
||
|
|
which is not acceptable. RISC OS gets away with it by making sure that
|
||
|
|
there is a vertical scrollbar visible at all times, which is just stupid.
