Fri Oct 17, 2008 2:03 am Currently, I have KWin compositing enabled, but rarely use it (screenshots are the exception) because it slows everything down. When KDE starts up, it loads KWin into compositing mode, and I always have to turn it off with ++F12. Is there a way that I can still have compositing enabled, but not activated at startup? That way, I can activate compositing when I want to, but without the hassle of going back into systemsettings. Type Colemak! Proud, Conservative Republican "Gentlemen! You can't fight in here!

A keyboard shortcut would be perfect. Type Colemak! Proud, Conservative Republican "Gentlemen! You can't fight in here! This is the war room!" --President Merkin Muffley, Dr. Strangelove

Or alternatively have a script make a config file change & dbus call to kwin ( this is what the plasmoid does ) run on logon KDE Sysadmin [img]content/bcooksley_sig.png[/img]
