move window like mplayer

Description:

Hi, this is an idea about moving windows. Just imagine when YOu do not have to klick on "windows decoration" to move window" but enywhere whwere You like to but except with buttoms, tabs, editable fields etc. Like moving mplayer window.

What du you think about this idea?




Changelog:

I have created an image with Gimp. 'Mouse clicks'means that user have to click for exmple 2 times on any part of the window except buttons, comboboxes,editable fields - TO MOVE THE WINDOW JUST CLICK & HOLD ON EVERYTHING THAT IS NOT EDITABLE or CAN BE MARKED etc. to 'Close', 'Maximize' or 'Minimize'. Or mayby 'Mouse Clicks' put into individual options - 3 clicks to close the window, 2 clicks to minimize the window, 4 clicks to 'Above Others' etc.

AND yes I know that this is not an kde-'idea.org' but if I have IDEA but no skills so where can I put it?, to kde.bugs - its not a bug, to sigle developer - as You can see not everyone like new things and chalanges, problems that comes with new IDEAs.

to allow using a combined click (lmb+rmb) for free move mode could be a good idea.

the other thing (implementation of the demanded "mplayer like" move (xmms had this since ages, copied from winamp....)) is to add a dcop/dbus function to kwin that sets it to "free move" mode and have widgets that can, call this slot on lmb (e.g. the toolbar calls, the toolbutton not)

i did sth. similar for baghira, but use a fake lmb - what's really a crappy hack

so this is possible at all (the toolbutton etc. design is no argue, as toolbuttons as well as other items - especially on qt4 - change their appereance on hover, so the user will know what he/she's gonna click)

alt+left mouse button for moving, alt+right mouse button for resizing. Its been part of KWin for a good while. I rarely use the title bars to move windows now, and never the borders to resize.

Like one would say on slashdot: please mod parent up.

I think the ALT + mouse button trick is too hidden for/unknown among linux users. It is a killer feature for me (I feel the pain when working in Windows). It should be promoted, for example as a KDE-"tip of the day" or something.

It also works in Gnome and IceWM (and maybe others), although functionality may differ.

extra trick: in KDE: ALT+middle mouse button: send focussed window to back/front

But this implementation would have to be toolkit-independant. I can't imagine a situation where an app using qt can be grabbed and moved, while gtk app not.

Really, users should not care about the library that an app is based on. With QtCurve theme I don't see a big difference between GTK/KDE apps. The behaviour should stay consistent as well.
