Description lucas 2008-06-14 12:48:59 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Approximately half the effect needed to be rewritten (Mostly window handling stuff) so the patch file itself is kinda complex, but at least the effect is now usable on multi-monitor setups. Requires the effects->screenGeometry() and effects->addRepaint(QRegion) patches that were sent to the mailing list yesterday.

- Removed whitespace changes
- Fixed unscalePos() so that it returns the correct desktop on non-square grids

- When clicking on black space activate the highlighted desktop, not desktop 1

Patches above do not reach quality standards. Will post a WindowQuadList optimized version to the mailing list sometime soon.
