I always wanted a solution to not only make my unfocused windows transparent (by a customizable amount), but implementing much advanced compositing functions, to a definable class of windows, as: * tinting * shading * scaling (ex: master window appear as always, non-master windows as a scaled down version - ala exposé) * zoom-in, zoom-out Is a very difficult task to use compiz-fusion, and write special plugins to use it with xmonad? AIXGL is very powerful and performs very well, even on non end-line machines. Thanks, Andrea

Unfortunately they appear on every window. Originally I did not inspect the referenced screenshot carefully enough and so got the mistaken impression that this effect would be dynamic. That is I expected that only the window with the focus would have a shadow. In a tiled setting this would cause the window losing focus to appear to drop back to the tiled plane and the window receiving focus appear to pop up.
Is such an effect possible? Has anyone done so? Any advice or pointers? Unfortunately (AIUI) not yet (except in the compiz wm). Soon, though, soon...
