I am curious, how you use window shading in your workflow?
@alper_celik
I use it reflexively, all the time.
Window Shading is a great way to:
- get my windows out of my way when I need to context switch (without switching desktops),
- reply to someone in another window on the same desktop (especially little windows like KDEConnect's SMS, or or Element)
- show or access something on my desktop (icons? widgets?)
- quickly hide the contents of an app from shoulder surfers
It's far more convenient and flexible than minimizing, or switching desktops.
@alper_celik
Additionally,
Window Shading is a great way to make sticky windows unobtrusive, while still keeping them top of mind..
Especially true for things like mixers (like pavucontrol) and chat programs.
when i need to reference something in a browser behind my ide, doubleclick on the title-bar is ALWAYS set on ALL my desktops to window shade..
It's invaluable for everyday GUI tasks.
Sure, this might not be everyone's experience, but for those that know and use it, it's a huge miss.
