DESCRIPTION

13       xcompmgr is a sample compositing manager for X servers  supporting  the
14       XFIXES,  DAMAGE,  and COMPOSITE extensions.  It enables basic eye-candy
15       effects.

OPTIONS

18       -d display
19              Specifies the display to manage.
20
21       -r radius
22              Specifies the blur radius for client-side shadows.
23
24       -o opacity
25              Specifies the opacity for client-side shadows.
26
27       -l left-offset
28              Specifies the left offset for client-side shadows.
29
30       -t top-offset
31              Specifies the top offset for client-side shadows.
32
33       -I fade-in-step
34              Specifies the opacity change between steps while fading in.
35
36       -O fade-out-step
37              Specifies the opacity change between steps while fading out.
38
39       -D fade-delta
40              Specifies the time (in milliseconds) between steps in a fade.
41
42       -a     Automatic server-side compositing.  This instructs the server to
43              use the standard composition rules.  Useful for debugging.
44
45       -c     Client-side  compositing with soft shadows and translucency sup‐
46              port.
47
48       -f     When -c is specified, enables a smooth fade effect for transient
49              windows  like  menus,  and  for  all windows on hide and restore
50              events.
51
52       -n     Simple client-side compositing.
53
54       -s     Server-side compositing with hard-edged shadows.
55
56       -C     When -c is specified, attempts to avoid painting shadows on pan‐
57              els and docks.
58
59       -F     When  -f is specified, also enables the fade effect when windows
60              change their opacity, as with transset(1).
61
62       -S     Enables synchronous operation.  Useful for debugging.
