Thanks for your reply,
All I need really is what you stated: radius and opacity.
Since XFCE4 compositor just turns shadows on and off, XFCE4 just checks to see if I have the following enabled in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf right?
Code:
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
I cannot find xcompmgr on my machine but I have shadows enabled. Is this something I install after to manipulate the basic settings that are already enabled?
If I give xcompmgr a few arguments will they be stored in config file and remain until I change arguments again?
Thanks for clearing things up,
Regards
