[KWin] throwable windows

Thu Mar 26, 2009 4:37 pm
after you drag a window, when you release it will mantain some inertia for a while and then slows down. like friction: new speed = current_speed * (1-coef_friction)

could be an option you could turn on and off in desktop customization. you could possibly even change the amount of friction (off would be infinite friction)

Although my idea is more general, I mentioned this idea here: Window movement can trigger actions

I think those are separate ideas - this sounds more like a KWin effect.
