How do I enable the 'wobbly windows' effect in LL2.8? - m654321 - 03-22-2016 [size=1em]Following my experience of the somewhat amusing/intriguing 'wobbly windows' effect in Zorin OS, when I last used that OS a couple of years ago, I thought I'd try and reproduce the effect in LL2.8. I've installed CompizConfig Settings Manager from Synaptic Package Manager, and have successfully installed the relevant compiz plugins by running the following command:[/size] Code: sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-plugins The 'wobbly windows' option in the CompizConfig Settings Manager has been ticked, together with the 'Composite' and 'OpenGL' options. However, following more than one reboot, the wobbly windows effect doesn't seem to be activated. Could it be that this effect is only compatible with a Gnome desktop (as in Zorin) and so therefore wont work with Linux Lite's XFCE? As usual any help is much appreciated...

The effects do not always work but my biggest gripe is that quite often LL will not restart properly (I get a blank screen) after I suspend or hibernate. The same problem occurs with Compton. What we get out of the box from Jerry is the biggest strength of LL. Not worth tampering with useless effects IMHO ![]() Re: How do I enable the 'wobbly windows' effect in LL2.8? - m654321 - 03-23-2016 Quote: What we get out of the box from Jerry is the biggest strength of LL.
