3.3.10 Configuring Desktop Effects
Compiz is a compositing window manager for the X Window System that uses 3D
graphics hardware to create fast compositing desktop effects for window management.
Effects are implemented as loadable plugins. Compiz lets you turn your desktop into
a rotating 3D cube, tile windows so they do not overlap and switch tasks while viewing
live thumbnails. You can enable translucent or transparent windows, zoom in and out
of the desktop screen, and use other window effects such as shadows, fading and
transformations. You can also configure windows to snap to other windows and screen
edges when they are moved.
