Ever since my upgrade to 12.04, I've been having problems with dragging and dropping in unity.
When I start dragging something, the unity launcher will fade (or show if it is hidden) and if I try to drop whatever I'm dragging while it is doing that, the file won't drop. If i drop really fast before the launcher fades, it works fine.
Is there a way to disable the screen fade which happens when a gui application asks for the users password (i.e. when gksudo is used i believe).For example, when starting synaptic most of the time. I find it annoying, and it doesn't fade cleanly on my system, so i'd prefer just not to have it. But my google-fu is weak.
galaxy Nexus running 4.1.1
I connect my Nexus to my computer via USB often. I can see and transfer files to and from my computer and/or phone.
However, lately, when I try to back up my files by simply dragging and dropping all the folders contained in "Internal Storage" (about 42 total folders) to a folder on my computer - the phone will take forever to process this information.
hi.
is it possible to disable the fade effect when the lockscreen gets visible??
thanks
I bought a iomega 1000gb USB hard drive. I use it to back up by dragging and dropping my home folder to it. This works fine. The problem is its full. If I try to delete files when I come to use the trash applet it comes up with a message in nautilus about preparing to delete. Half an hour later it still says the same. Is there a way to do this at less than geological speed?
My apologies if this has been posted before, but I have searched and haven't found any obvious answers.
One strange and little annoying issue I notice with my openSUSE 11.3 installation is my Synaptic touchpad behaves way too strange....
Dragging a window or icon - half way around - a click is generated (probably a middle click I guess) and I need to re-drag it again....
In the browser when I try to select a text - again by dragging - a middle click gets generated...
I am using a hack to display an overlay over a picture in Google TV using a constant toast message.
I would like to know if there is a way to further modify the toast to remove the fade in and fade out effect. Ideally I would like the overlay to appear instantly.
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
Yesterday I was still using Natty with Compiz. I had noticed that disabling Vsync in Compiz made dragging windows much more smooth and responsive (I don't mind the tearing).
I installed Ocelot this morning which seems to use Mutter by default (I may be wrong there, I'm still kind of lost). Dragging windows has the same sluggish feeling as with Compiz and Vsync enabled.
