Guest repliedAll those people that write on Kde5 (and Kwin of course) as soon as someone writes of the better Trinity Desktop (former Kde3) is hilarious.
Compiz was the first, the its code has been used (stolen) by all the others (and by Kwin of course).

Wow, that did work. I had kwin installed already but couldn't get it to function in Trinity. Then I installed the kwin-x11 package from Debian, and invoked it with:
$ kwin_x11 --replace
This is very interesting, much better than compiz. Thanks for the suggestion, I wasn't aware there was a way to get it to work, but I found a note on the Q4OS forums that led me to the solution. Very little else written online about it. This is performing much faster than compiz, and with a lot less configuration effort.

I noticed icewm also works as the window manager, but it doesn't really bring anything to the table. None of the features that I miss in TWin, and not as good looking as TWin.

Out of curiosity, why not use KWin from Plasma for those effects and abilities?

Not as customizable as full-blown KDE, but allows using some advanced features like screen-edge half-screen resizes, compositor settings, and KWin scripts.

How do you configure it in xfce? In Trinity the control center won't configure kwin. Do you use a config file?
