    Hello all,

    I have delved into the world of Linux, and I'm enjoying it thusfar.

    Quick question...I'm loving the sweet eye-candy, but one thing I can't figure out how to fix...after an animation finishes, or after the cube effect it takes a second for my desktop and the selected window to come into focus as it is blurred and maximizing.

    Does anyone know which setting I need to change?...there are so many I'm lost in the haystack looking for the needle!

    Thanks

    I think I know what you're talking about; text rendered on the cube does not have subpixel smoothing... unfortunately there is nothing that can be done about this.

    it would depend on the plugin being used. if you're talking about animations, then you can the speed in the animations plugin. if you're talking about the 3d windows and cube collapsing to your 1 desktop, then you can change the speen in the 3d plugin. etc, etc
