I have recently upgraded from 17.04 to 17.10.   Upon upgrading, I noticed the "wobbly windows" feature wasn't working anymore.  I opened the CompizConfig settings manager and the feature was active.   I tried to disable and re-enable with no effect.   I am not knowledgeable enough to figure out whether any of the detailed settings might be the problem - here is a screenshot of what my settings for wobbly windows look like:    Note: I have tried disabling all other effects, with no change.

I have Ubuntu 13.04 with Gnome 3.8.  I installed compiz, CCSM. I tried to activate Wobbly Windows, but it doesn't work. It was working properly on Ubuntu 10.10 with Gnome.  Why it isn't working now?

So, I've noticed when you render something in version 2.8, it automatically opens a new window, and renders it on that.  What I want to know is this:  Is there anything special about this window, and is there a way to set it so that it renders it in the original window, like it did in version 2.79?

I have hp probook 4431s with an AMD card and when I boot into 19.04 live cd the screen was inverted (never happened on the previous 18.10). I installed it upside down but when I booted into the OS the screen was in normal state but the functionality is still upside down and the cursor was upside down and I don't know the solution. I also tried xrandr but didn't get it right. I have not so much of deep knowledge and really don't want to switch back to Windows.

I tried uninstalling and loading factory settings. Whenever I open my Preferences -> Addons window, I get a blank screen. Help I cant use addons on this machine anymore. It happened after installing a supposedly 2.8 compatible addon.

As mentioned in the title. Was upgrading from 17.10. Having this screen flickering.  My GPU is AMD RX480  What I did:   Search for similar issues for 18.04, can't find any Perform fresh install. Still the same.   Please help. It is very annoying. I can't work.

I've searched the internet and I came across  but it only solves one half of the problem. The first comment of this answer describes my problem but I could not find any solutions to this 'problem'. So I'm making a new post for this. Any help is appreciated!  EDIT:  So it seems there is no build-in way to achieve this. It's basically all or nothing.      Worth considering, however, is that you’ll also lose the ability to position windows on the right or left side of the screen, minimize, and maximize by using the keyboard arrow keys while holding the Windows key. For many users, the mouse-based snap features have a tendency to be annoying, but the keyboard-based window management features are great. It’s a shame that Microsoft treats Aero Snap with an “all or nothing” approach, but users can always turn to a third party window management utility if they miss this functionality.   I don't know where to look for software which provide these functionalities, so I'm open for software suggestions!  EDIT2:  There is actually a built-in option to do this.

When I press alt+tab to change between windows, the  "Files" window doesn't appear. It's really annoying because when I try to access the previously opened "Files" window, I have to minimize everything or open another "Files" process so I end the day with a lot of opened "Files" instances.

After awhile the chat windows begins to look like this:    Only after refreshing the window does the chat return to normal. Multiple people are reporting the same issue.

I installed CCSM to enable window previews in Unity. But when I went into extras, there was no 'window preview' option.  So I tried experimenting with other options in Compiz and now there are no borders in the dialogue boxes (close, minimize, restore buttons are not there, I had enabled some 'flat....' option in Compiz.  Later, I uninstalled Compiz and then reinstalled it. Now it says      "Failed to load session Ubuntu"   I can't even access through the guest account, I am new to Ubuntu.(please explain in detail).  All I have access to is the login screen (it still shows my custom wallpaper). Please help, I don't want to lose my stuff.

I recently changed the lighting in the viewport in the system preferences.    How can I rest the positions of the lights? The Reset to Default Value does not work. it simple sets them all to a top light.  How can I reset the direction of the lamps without restoring factory defaults?

Everything in Windows 10 worked perfectly for just 3 or 4 days after upgrading from 8.1. Yesterday I wanted to use the search feature, so I press win+s and get the error "Critical Error: Your Start menu isn't working. We'll try to fix it the next time you sign in."  (I also can't open the settings app since that's also a 'metro' app)  I have tried everything I could find and nothing worked for me.  Things I've tried include:   In powershell:   Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}  The answer .   And things like that.  "Did you modify the registry?"  Yes:   Adding Sublime Text 3 to the "Open with" list (It can't be because of this can it?) Back in Windows 8; Adding a few things to the RMB menu of some files (no trouble at all)   So what can I do to fix these problems?

After upgrading my windows 10, I can no longer change powersettings. It only says the one I use and Balanced.  Where has the setting to change power plan settings moved to?

Since I installed 17.10, when switching language with the assigned keyboard shortcut I get this switcher "window" that obstructs me from typing for a couple of seconds. And yes, a couple of seconds is a huge amount of time when switching languages a lot.      This happens both in X11 and Wayland but doesn't happen (the obstructive window will not appear) when I switch language by clicking on the lang indicator on top bar. Is there any way to tell this window "please go away"?

At some point recently the tile windows feature stopped working for me. Hence if I drag a window to the left or right of the screen it no longer fills half the screen. Similarly, dragging a window to the top does not maximize it.  Ctrl  + Super + Up still maximizes  Ctrl + Super + Down still minimizes  Ctrl + Super + Left/Ctrl + Super + Right do not make the current window fill the left/right of the screen.  I am guessing this is a failed update somewhere. Does anyone know which packages to try reinstalling to regain this feature?

MATE desktop has recently migrated, as of version 1.6, from using mateconf-editor to gsettings. This breaks traditional solutions for changing MATE's window manager to Compiz.

I am running windows 7 with multiple monitors.  2 at 1920 x 1200 and 1 at 1600x900 resolution.  Controls are cut off and I cannot view the entire content of the window.    As far as I can tell I only have the issue with Outlook 2010, it may be present in other applications but I haven't noticed it.  For example to get to the more settings button I have to use tab and then click enter.  The more settings button is never visible.  I have used applications that allow you to force windows to be resizable, however the anchoring is such that it remains cut off.  This has been present over multiple clean installs on the system.  My DPI is set to 100% unlike this .

I was using workplace switching for a long time and it suddenly stopped working today.  Even after a fresh install, (some config left over as I preserved my /home folder).  Super + S still raises to show all work-spaces.  Clicking on a task-bar icon representing a window in another work-space no longer switches to that workspace + window.  Ctrl + Alt + ⟵ (any direction) no longer works.  Ctrl + Shift - Alt - ⟵ (any direction) no longer works.  I've verified that those key combos are registering by redundantly re-assigning the shortcut mappings.
