Annoyance: upper right corner

[Rodolfo Alcazar Portillo]

Hi :)

I have the desktop effects activated. But when I touch, by mistake, the
upper right corner with the mouse pointer, the windows picker starts.

Googled, installed ccsm, deactivated the option (ccsm/Window
Management/Scale/bindings/Initiate Window Picker: all disabled), but it
still keeps the same nasty behaviour.

Where can I disable this window picker?

Thanks a lot.

In the past I discovered the same annoyance, and I changed the location
that it triggered off to the bottom left hand corner, where Gnome
usually has an icon to hide all the windows on the desktop.  I found
that much more practical.

I seem to recall doing it through the gconf-editor, changing a topright
key value to bottomleft.  Though it should be easier to do with a
configuration tool geared towards customising compiz.

I don't have that computer set up at the moment, to see how I did it,
specifically.

In gconf-editor:  /apps/compiz/plugins/scale/allscreens/options/initiate_edge
was set as TopRight, I set it as BottomLeft.

I've only had moderate success at enabling and disabling some effects.

Thanks, works fine. This is the procedure:

- open gconf-editor
- open branch /apps/ compiz/plugins/scale/Allscreens/options
- set initiate_edge from "TopRight" to "Disabled"

Greetings.
