Have any idea on them? 1) One 2) One 3) Yes (20% mouse-using ^_^) 4) GNOME-Panels Pager 5) Nope 6) + 7) If I haven't enough space (eg for The GIMP) I simply hit the edge and the VP is "increased". As far as I can see (haven't checked the code) ID simply moves everything not marked as ignored or avoided, to fake increase the size of the VP, That's ok. But the steps need to be changeable, as it damn slow with current setup. After ID/EF/WS/VP are reworked the way it will be decided, I also would like to merge the drag-desktop into ID, as it would make it more complete (not just fake increasing by hitting the edge, also by moving the root-window) > My case: > 1.
