compiz fusion How to raise window off the cube?


Hello linux fans,

I did a google search on this but couldn't find the answer.

I am running the latest stable of compiz fusion. I've installed it using arch linux's pacman manager. It install everything including the main and extra plugins. My video card is a nvidia Geforce 5200 and I'm using the latest nvidia driver.

I want to know where in the compiz settings manager is the plugin to raise the windows off the cube. This effect worked with beryl, but I can't find it in compiz fusion. When I rotate the cube, the windows are flat against the cube. I appreciate any help or link for the feature.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

the plugin you want is 3DWindows : http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/Plugins/Cube#3d

it appears that it's not packaged yet, cause it seems to be under construction (or too buggy), more information available here :
http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/OtherPlugins

good luck if you want to compile it on your own
