There are times when I find Compiz quite nifty
In particular, I really like two things about Compiz. One is the preview of the windows I have open when switching from one workspace to another or from one app to another. The other is the magnification of the screen when I press Alt +1 (or 2 or 3). I find it really helpful.
I haven’t really turned on the option for Compiz before. When I installed Hardy Heron, the settings were normal and I just had to take them as they are so that I could try out some Compiz effects for the heck of it. I haven’t really done that before because I was having trouble often enough, aside from the fact that I mainly used GNOME or Openbox and they met most of my needs anyway.
When I need to look at details and couldn’t use a dual-monitor setup, the keyboard shortcut for magnification is simply great. It is also nifty in highlighting details of an app so you could easily show it too.
Do you use Compiz? What is useful to you?
