Hide workspace switcher popup #3

I'd prefer an option that disables the popup altogether. I find it very distracting. I can tell I'm on a new workspace because I get different windows.

lzap commented 12 years ago

Which popup you mean? I dont' see any when changing workspace.

mojavelinux commented 12 years ago

Oh, I mean the indicator graphic that shows up in the middle of the screen while the workspace is being switched. It has the boxes for the workspaces and the up and down arrows.

I'd actually like to have the animations but not the indicator graphic.

I am afraid I don't know how to disable only the popup. As you can see I currently disable all animations. It's pretty straightforward:

Feel free to send me a patch.

Yep, I played around with the code. I understood how you got animations to be disabled, but my attempt to hide the overlay had no effect. I'll have to keep playing around with it...I guess reading the API docs would be a good start :)

I just saw this thread. I also was bugged by the popup and solved the problem a while ago. Check this out: https://github.com/kollerma/Remove-Workspace-Switcher-for-Gnome-3.0

lzap commented 12 years ago

Ah that is nice. Maybe we could merge those, add some gconf settings and a configuration dialog box ;-)

kollerma commented 12 years ago

Merging would be fine with me, I just needed this popup to be gone :-)
