Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs


Sometimes it is good to have "Dim Inactive" enabled to get focused to one task by time. 

But the "Present Windows" Effect is great all the time, just by waving mouse to corner and you get all windows from one desktop or all desktops to front of you nicely.

But when using "Dim Inactive" effect, it is affecting while "Present windows" is used. 

It makes harder to find the wanted window when others are dimmed. 

Suggestion is to disable the "Dim Inactive" when user actives the "Present windows" effect.

Currently the "Dim Inactive" makes nice effect to the mouse hovering, but it could be done with better effect. (mayby I add a mockup about this later).
