Version: (using KDE 4.0.0) Installed from: SuSE RPMs OS: Linux I'd love to have a feature to trigger the "workspace grid" (I hope that's the correct translation, the effect where all desktops are shown in a grid) by hammering the mouse into an edge of the screen, just like the "show windows" effect can be triggered. It could even make it into 4.0.1 as the translations are already there.
JJ: Should be easy to copy from presentwindows* files to desktopgrid* files.
It should be made sure that only one plugin can have one edge, so that no edge can be assigned twice. Or if it is assigned twice, be sure to only activate ONE plugin.

Shouldn't it be ideally possible to trigger any kwin action that way ? (or even any KDE action ?) I have the feeling that this should be factorized at some higher level, so that the screen corners become input actions like any key stroke. Example: minimize/restore actions. In compiz I mapped those actions to the lower corners of my screen. With that setting, I don't have to aim (and often miss) those two so small buttons at the upper right corner of the window when I use my big fingers on the touchpad.
